That would be easier to fix; but wouldn't that affect all platforms equally?
Yes, but I'm honestly still a bit puzzled as to what makes this failure Windows only. While on Windows `xmm6` is a callee save register we seem to be handling that correctly. Also the sequence has no branches in between. Only jumps so it shouldn't matter. It's also very fragile. Small alterations to the test program trying to reduce makes the issue go away. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/14619#comment:27 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
