That's a bit worrying...

This is caused by Data Execution Prevention. When I disable DEP for stage2/ghc.exe, these programs do not segfault; instead ff012 and conc023 fail while conc049 passes. When I enable DEP, all three segfault.

http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/885 seems to be the relevant issue. I am using a Core Duo processor instead of an Athlon, but the gist is the same.

The reason I did not notice this earlier was because I just turned on DEP for all programs in the days between the first time I ran the test suite against 6.6 and this most recent time.

Brian
