Prelude.hi seems to be unregisterised:
00000000 00 01 fa ce 00 00 12 1f 04 00 00 00 36 00 00 00
|............6...|
00000010 30 00 00 00 38 00 00 00 32 01 00 00 00 75 00 00
|0...8...2....u..|
00000020 12 1b 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 01 00 00 00 00 01 00
|................|
but compiler/stage1/ghc-inplace --info shows that the compiler is
registerised:
[sbox-CHINOOK_ARM2: ~/ghc] > ./compiler/stage1/ghc-inplace --info
[("Project name","The Glorious Glasgow Haskell Compilation System")
,("Project version","6.8.2")
,("Booter version","6.8.2")
,("Stage","1")
,("Interface file version","6")
,("Have interpreter","NO")
,("Object splitting","NO")
,("Have native code generator","NO")
,("Support SMP","NO")
,("Unregisterised","NO")
,("Tables next to code","YES")
,("Win32 DLLs","")
,("RTS ways","debug debug_p ")
,("Leading underscore","NO")
]
So ghc seems to be writing the wrong information to the .hi file... Any
idea why, or what I should look at that could be causing this?
Thanks,
Dusty
