Also you need to make these tests safe to run in parallel, I got this failure with THREADS=2: {{{ Stderr: /usr/bin/ld: T5435.o: invalid string offset 4519 >= 1388 for section `.strtab' /usr/bin/ld: final link failed: Nonrepresentable section on output collect2: ld returned 1 exit status make[3]: *** [T5435_v] Error 1 }}} -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/5435#comment:22 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
