#8006: Asynchronous exception rethrown synchronously inside runStmt ---------------------------------+------------------------------------------ Reporter: edsko | Owner: Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Compiler | Version: 7.6.3 Keywords: | Os: Unknown/Multiple Architecture: Unknown/Multiple | Failure: None/Unknown Difficulty: Unknown | Testcase: Blockedby: | Blocking: Related: | ---------------------------------+------------------------------------------ Comment(by simonmar): I think I suggested somewhere that we should have a special kind of `catch` that doesn't catch asynchronous exceptions. That would give us a good way to fix this problem manually, at least. It does need changes in both GHC (a new primop) and the RTS (a new stack frame) though. -- Ticket URL: http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/8006#comment:6 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
