#8834: 64-bit windows cabal.exe segfaults in GC ----------------------------------+---------------------------------- Reporter: awson | Owner: Type: bug | Status: patch Priority: highest | Milestone: 7.8.1 Component: Compiler | Version: 7.8.1-rc2 Resolution: | Keywords: Operating System: Windows | Architecture: x86_64 (amd64) Type of failure: Runtime crash | Difficulty: Unknown Test Case: | Blocked By: Blocking: | Related Tickets: ----------------------------------+---------------------------------- Comment (by awson): Replying to [comment:20 simonpj]:
Could this have anything to do with #8870, a much simpler case than Cabal?
(As #8870 says, I can't even build a working stage-2 GHC on Windows now.)
Both this and #8870 look like release blockers to me.

I can't reproduce #8870 using 32-bit GHC on 64-bin Windows. Are you using 32-bit Windows? If no, then your problem can be different from #8870 (but still related to #8834). -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/8834#comment:21 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
