#9078: Segfault with makeStableName -------------------------------------+------------------------------------ Reporter: robertce | Owner: Type: bug | Status: patch Priority: highest | Milestone: 7.8.3 Component: Compiler | Version: 7.8.2 Resolution: | Keywords: Operating System: Unknown/Multiple | Architecture: Unknown/Multiple Type of failure: None/Unknown | Difficulty: Unknown Test Case: | Blocked By: Blocking: | Related Tickets: -------------------------------------+------------------------------------ Comment (by ezyang): @chak Stable names are GC'd as normal (as opposed to stable *pointers*), so they'll get freed upon GCs. This behavior is new from fixing #7674, I assume that is how the bug got introduced too. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/9078#comment:10 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
