#7574: Register allocator chokes on certain branches with literals ---------------------------------+------------------------------------------ Reporter: thoughtpolice | Owner: thoughtpolice Type: bug | Status: new Priority: high | Milestone: 7.8.1 Component: Compiler (NCG) | Version: 7.7 Keywords: ncg, codegen | Os: Unknown/Multiple Architecture: Unknown/Multiple | Failure: Compile-time crash Difficulty: Unknown | Testcase: Blockedby: 7573 | Blocking: Related: #7571,#7534 | ---------------------------------+------------------------------------------ Comment(by simonmar): @thoughtpolice - I presume you got stalled? I looked into this myself and somehow couldn't get my fix to work properly, the NCG was throwing away code that it shouldn't have been. I shall try again when I get some time, but it definitely needs fixing before 7.8.1. -- Ticket URL: http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/7574#comment:16 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
