On Windows, HUnit's assertions are not working - trace below in ghci 6.8.1and 6.6.1. Can others reproduce? Is this the right place to report bugs? Should I confirm a bug here and then create a ticket, create a ticket and that's it, or just mention it here and someone else creates a ticket?

This is caused by a change in the HUnit library, from assertFailure msg = ioError (userError (hunitPrefix ++ msg)) to assertFailure msg = E.throwDyn (HUnitFailure msg) We don't really have a good answer for where non-bootlib library bugs should go at the moment. I don't know if Dean uses the sourceforge bug tracker or not. Thanks Ian
