#15038: Memory Corruption (strange closure type) -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: andrewthad | Owner: (none) Type: bug | Status: new Priority: highest | Milestone: 8.6.1 Component: Compiler | Version: 8.4.1 Resolution: | Keywords: Operating System: Unknown/Multiple | Architecture: | Unknown/Multiple Type of failure: Runtime crash | Test Case: Blocked By: | Blocking: Related Tickets: #9718 | Differential Rev(s): Wiki Page: | -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Comment (by simonpj):
The whole interaction between CorePrep, CoreTidy, and caffyness is quite unfortunate. It would be better if CorePrep and CoreTidy were less coupled in this regard. I thought there was a ticket discussing this, but I'm having trouble finding it at the moment.
It's #9718, and I wonder if we should devote some effort to nailing it? It's not that hard, and the status quo is a continuing source of fragility. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/15038#comment:23 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
