This doesn't look good. Any suggestions? Is it really a ghc bug?
Can you try recompiling with -O or -Onot, and with -fvia-C. We'll find out if its a GHC code gen bug (almost certainly a ghc bug).
Any hints how to do this? I'm a cabal-illiterate... and I almost certainly won't have a chance to try this until tomorrow.
Oh, experiment with some different settings in xmonad.cabal:
ghc-options: -funbox-strict-fields -O2 -fasm -Wall -optl-Wl,-s
Try -O, -O -fvia-c, -Onot and such. See if we can narrow it down for Simon et al.
Hmmm. Now the problem has disappeared (on recompiling). Darn, a heisenbug. Oh well, I'll try this again if the problem ever crops up again.
Maybe a cosmic ray corrupted your last compile :-) Anyway -- good! This means , I think, there are no open bugs preventing 0.2. We're now entering a few days of feature freeze to the core, and a process of doc writing and QC testing. -- Don
