Just more or less as an aside, at its origin in April (!) this thread didn't mention any debugger - the question was just how to build ghc so that a stack trace would come out. A real debugger is no replacement for that (because you have to be on hand and know how to repeat the problem to get anywhere with a debugger), but that's just my opinion.

I agree. Some could argue that "stack traces are no replacement for a debugger" but it is also true that "a debugger is no replacement for stack traces". :) I will try the "+RTS -xc -RTS" method, many thanks to everybody for the advice. Frederik -- http://ofb.net/~frederik/
