This is not a bug report but a question concerning GHC 3.00
installation on Linux. I tried to install GHC 3.00 following the
instructions for building from the source distribution. However,
after ``gmake all'' and a large amount of time I got this:
--- BEGIN ---
ghc-2.10 -cpp -fglasgow-exts -Rghc-timing -I. -IcodeGen -InativeGen -Iparser
-iutils:basicTypes:types:hsSyn:prelude:rename:typecheck:deSugar:coreSyn:specialise:simplCore:stranal:stgSyn:simplStg:codeGen:absCSyn:main:reader:profiling:parser:nativeGen
-recomp -Onot -H30m -fno-warn-incomplete-patterns -c rename/ParseIface.hs -o
rename/ParseIface.o -osuf o
Segmentation fault caught, address = 66a3d060
gmake[2]: *** [rename/ParseIface.o] Error 1
gmake[1]: *** [all] Error 2
gmake: *** [all] Error 2
--- END ---
(I have the complete print-outs made by configure, gmake boot and
gmake all, if it helps. I don't include them in this mail because
they are pretty large files.)
I found the following in your Installation Guide: ``(Exception: on
iX86 boxes---you may need to fiddle with GHC's -monly-N-regs option;
ask if confused...)'' Therefore, I am asking.
So, am I doing something wrong or ...?
