Hugs is probably crashing with a stack overflow which is one way that
it can respond to infinite loops. (GHC can respond this way too but
tends to catch more as <<loop>>s and provides nicer error messages on
stack overflow.)

Dear Haskellers, when I execute a program made with GHC (standard Haskell only, no optimization) I get
Fail: << loop>>
I have -W on, but it only tells me about a single overlapping pattern, which is ok.
The same program crashes Hugs alltogether.
Any hints for what I should look in my sources?
MfG Ingo
