Dear Win32 GHC folk It does seem that GHC 5.04 profiling was utterly broken. It now seems that this might have been to do with the version of gcc we were using. It seems to work with 5.04.1 and a new version of gcc, which (though Sigbjorn's good offices) will come inside 5.04.1's distribution. So our claim is that 5.04.1 will work for profiling. We hope to get it out this week. Can you try again then?
