Changes (by SamB):
* version: 6.6 => 6.6.1
Comment:
This doesn't work in 6.6.1 either, though a different error message is
given:
{{{
Prelude> :set -fth
Prelude> $(let s = replicate 26227 'x' in [| s |])
Loading package template-haskell ... linking ... done.
ghc-6.6.1: panic! (the 'impossible' happened)
(GHC version 6.6.1 for i386-unknown-linux):
linkBCO: >= 64k insns in BCO
}}}
Also, I was actually trying to use Derive to create some instance
declarations (which I want to put in a file rather than compile), rather
than just lifting a boring list into TH, but this code is much shorter.
