I just tried HDBC-ODBC on 6.8.2, but it still crashes. Works on 6.6.1.

[Haskell-cafe] HDBC-ODBC crashes on ghc 6.8








This minimal program below fails in 6.8.1, works for 6.6.1, for up to date HDBC-ODBC-1.1.3. (I tried installing both from package and from darcs head)


Installed and running from cygwin.


When I run it as runghc fail.hs I get a windows popup error "ghc.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close, sorry for the inconvenience".
ghci, same behavior.


When I run it as ghc -e 'main' fail.hs, I don't get a popup window, and no error message is output, but it fails all the same. (I know this because more complicated, non-minimal programs, fail.)


So this would seem to be a problem with ghc 6.8.1.


$ cat fail.hs


import Database.HDBC

import Database.HDBC.ODBC


main = connectODBC "some valid connect string, works when run from 6.6.1, not from 6.8.1"
