There are many things i do not understand. Why the different behaviour on Linux and Windows? Shouldn't an exception be thrown on Linux instead of a core dump? I don't use any unsafePerformIO or foreign calls. Why the changed path? I never change working directory in my code. Why is a function (-> reading the config file) re-evaluated at a later point in time?
How can I debug such a problem?
My environement is ghc 6.6 on Ubuntu or Windows XP.
It may be difficult to say without seeing your code. Is it possible for you to post it, or at least a minimal test case that would illustrate the different errors on the different OSes? What Unix toolkit are you using when running ghc on Windows, if any (cygwin, mingw, both, neither?)
