Hmmm, wishful thinking... If I check out at the moment I get:
* a module ParseIface which needs 130MB (!) heap for compilation
with ghc-4.01 on Linux
* a ghc which can't compile its own Prelude:
../../../ghc/driver/ghc -H100M -pgmc/usr/bin/gcc
-optc-B/usr/lib/gcc-lib/i486-linux/2.7.2.3/ -recomp -cpp -fglasgow-exts -fvia-C
-Rghc-timing -O -split-objs -odir PrelBase -H10m -c PrelBase.lhs -o PrelBase.o -osuf
o
ghc: ignoring heap-size-setting option (-H10m)...not the largest seen
ghc: ignoring heap-size-setting option (-H10m)...not the largest seen
PrelBase.lhs:18: Could not find valid interface file `PrelErr'
PrelBase.lhs:19: Could not find valid interface file `PrelGHC'
* a runtime system without the recent patches (Adjustor.c, Storage.h)
* a ghc driver script which still confuses -M and -H
Cheers,
Sven
