This made me think about using *.o-files in GHCi generated w/ 'ghc -O2'. My GHCi (currently 5.00.2) states:
--- snip --- warning: -O conflicts with --interactive; -O turned off. --- snap ---
if I pass -O2 to ghci.
Additionally, I recall some core-dumps or having ghci sometimes report missing symbols if using some modules compiled w/ optimization.
So, is GHCi supposed to work w/ optimized modules after all?
Sure, GHCi is supposed to be able to load optimised object code just as well as non-optimised object code. If it doesn't, this is a bug. Cheers, Simon
