Maybe a binary distribution for Mac OS Tiger would be useful. (I prefer the plain .tar.gz files over .pkg, because they don't require root rights.) I usually make them using a file mk/build.mk containing: BIN_DIST=1 Project=Ghc HADDOCK_DOCS = YES #XMLDocWays = html using the commands: ./configure make make binary-dist I can offer binary dists for x68 under Solaris and PPC Mac OS 10.5 (Leopard), the latter depending on: /opt/local/lib/libiconv.2.dylib /opt/local/lib/libncurses.5.dylib /opt/local/lib/libgmp.3.dylib Cheers Christian http://www.informatik.uni-bremen.de/agbkb/forschung/formal_methods/CoFI/hets... http://www.informatik.uni-bremen.de/agbkb/forschung/formal_methods/CoFI/hets...

It is problem about the library for dealing OS process. This bug is fixed, and fixed version of process is in the repository. You can check out latest library from http://darcs.haskell.org/packages/process and replace the library in the build directory (libraries/process).
If you are bothered to this, you can just comment-in a line 90 (maybe near of here...) in libraries/process/cbits/runProcess.c to disableItimers() in the child process.

I also run Mac OSX 10.4.11 (there are some left) and I experience the same problem but with the full release of 6.10.3 from source. I've read the discussion and the trac ticket at http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/3243, but I have no idea how to actually get and apply the patch.
Sorry if I'm being incredibly thick, (or even just a bit thick) but I have barely used C or darcs (though I do have darcs installed). Any advice on how to fix this is much appreciated - originally I just wanted to upgrade Cabal but when it didn't work I tried to upgrade GHC, and now I seem to be digging a big hole!
