That fixed the signal problem!
Sadly that just gets me far enough to Setup +RTS -V0 -RTS build, which runs ghc, which then dies from the same signal problem :-(
Well, yeah - a solution it is not, but we sure know a lot about the problem now. Your ghc is fundamentally broken - hGetContents, a very commonly used base library function, can't survive the runtime's own timer signals. Obviously this doesn't happen for other users, maybe even on OpenSolaris? I'm sure someone has a clue how this could happen. Donn Cave, donn@avvanta.com
