[Haskell-cafe] Re: Bring down the house (was Re: GHC cannot compile my code)

9 Nov 2005

      Commenting these lines will let GHC start producing errors about  
instances that it cannot derive without -fglasgow-exts. Uncomment  
MinutesForTimeout and it will start to run out of memory again.

--newtype Tables = Tables [TableInfo] deriving (Show, Typeable)
--MinutesForTimeout :*:
--SeatsToResurrect :*:
--LangID :*:

With -fglasgow-exts only the first line needs to be commented out for  
the code to compile.

I narrowed the issue down to something that everyone can reproduce.
Sample code that makes GHC 6.4.1 run out of memory is here:
