Category: Template Haskell Group: 6.4 >Status: Open >Resolution: None Priority: 5 Submitted By: Wolfgang Thaller (wthaller) Assigned to: Simon Peyton Jones (simonpj) Summary: Template Haskell panic with class names Initial Comment: File Bug.hs: module Bug where foo = ''Show Compile using: ghc -c -fth Bug.hs Result: ghc-6.4.1: panic! (the `impossible' happened, GHC version 6.4.1): lookupDeprec GHCziShow.Show{tc 2h} Please report it as a compiler bug to glasgow-haskell- [EMAIL PROTECTED], or http://sourceforge.net/projects/ghc/. The panic does not happen if the type class or one of its method is actually used in the same module. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Wolfgang Thaller (wthaller) Date: 2005-08-03 00:13 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=566359 The fix causes more problems: $ cat THClassName.hs module THClassName where class Foo a baz = ''Foo $ ghc -c -fth THClassName.hs Bad interface file: THClassName.hi THClassName.hi: openBinaryFile: does not exist (No such file or directory) It tries to load the .hi file that doesn't yet exist, which it probably shouldn't do.

I'd fixed this in the HEAD but not the 6.4 branch.
