title: IsoDate.lhs compilation on Debian AMD64
(Just guessing from your description, no actual testing done by
me.) This could very well be a ghc 6.4 bug. Version 6.4.1is out
since September 19th; if that's available on Debian/AMD64 and if
you could test with that, that would be great.
Oh, and keep the "darcs changes --context" of the repo (with
unrecorded changes of course) in which you can reproduce this, just
in case a follow-up patch would change the source so that it
doesn't trigger this ghc bug anymore.
It turned out to be a bug with gcc-3.3. I used gcc-4.0 instead and
it compiles cleanly. I sent an email saying that to the bug tracker,
but I'm not sure if it made it in because of a hiccup with the bug
tracker. I don't think I will submit a bug to the gcc devs since it
appears to be fixed in more recent versions of gcc. But, perhaps the
ghc debian package should use a newer version of gcc. Any idea how I
would submit that suggestion to the debian maintainers?
Thanks,
Jason
