RE: 5.04.3: update_fwd: unknown/strange object
I build by new DoCon program under ghc-5.04.3,
installed from RPM to i386-unknown, RedHat Linux.
Under -Onot, the command make space=-M22m docon builds the thing successfully. And for less memory, say, ... 16m ..., it ends with
... pol/Pgcd_.hs:184: Warning: No explicit method nor default method for `toSquareFree' In the instance declaration for `GCDRing (Pol a)'

ghc-5.04.3: fatal error: update_fwd: unknown/strange object 38344 make: *** [obj] Error 254
I expected of GHC to report of exhausted memory. Probably, such behavior is not fatal for may aims, but if you consider this as an interesting bug, I could send the archive.
I'll be interested to know whether you can repeat this with 6.0. If so, yes I'd like to see the sources. Cheers, Simon
It occurs that we need first to install ghc-6.0 on i386-unknown, RedHat Linux platform. Our administrator says here is a difficulty: a) it is hard for us to install from sources, b) binary RPM would not do, due to library versions etc., c) we need source RPM distributive, similar as we used when installing ghc-5.04.3. But ghc-6.0 does not show any source RPM distributive. Please, what can we do about this? ----------------- Serge Mechveliani mechvel@botik.ru On Tue, Jun 17, 2003 at 12:02:10PM +0100, Simon Marlow wrote:
