#13738: TypeApplications-related GHC internal error -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: RyanGlScott | Owner: simonpj Type: bug | Status: closed Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Compiler | Version: 8.0.1 Resolution: fixed | Keywords: | TypeApplications Operating System: Unknown/Multiple | Architecture: | Unknown/Multiple Type of failure: Compile-time | Test Case: crash or panic | polykinds/T13738 Blocked By: | Blocking: Related Tickets: #13985 | Differential Rev(s): Wiki Page: | -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Comment (by simonpj): Hmm. * I think that there's an easy source-code workaround for #14209 (correct?), so fixing it isn't that urgent. Leaving 8.2 alone won't block anyone's progress. * While I doubt the patch will break anything, it is a non-local change so I'm not 100% confident of that claim. So I'd be inclined to merge it only if we can do a solid smoke-test against all of Hackage/Stackage to confirm the "no-break" claim. In the future that'll be easy to do; I'm not sure how hard it is today. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/13738#comment:20 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
