Hey Mads,
This seems to be correct. If I modify my testprogram to this:
module Main where
import Graphics.UI.WX
import System.IO
main :: IO ()
main
= do hPutStrLn stderr "WX checkpoint alpha"
--start hello
hello :: IO ()
hello
= do f <- frame [text := "Hello!"]
quit <- button f [text := "Quit", on command := close f]
set f [layout := widget quit]
Where start does not even get called, I get the same errors and infinite loop
(without ever getting the "WX checkpoint alpha"). Removing the hello
function and the import function outputs the string correctly without any
errors.
The strangest thing is that wxpython works flawlessly, so I am not sure
whether the problem is not in part due to some bug with ghc 6.8.3.
