Comment:
I have hit this bug as well, except I would estimate in my case the
probability of failure is much higher - I've got to a Prelude prompt only
once in two full evenings of fiddling.
I've tried with the snapshot you suggested above, and the bug is
reproduced. The output from GHCi is:
"GHCi, version 6.7.20070816: http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ :? for help
Loading package base ... linking ... done."
Running from an administrator priveleged command prompt doesn't help, nor
does marking ghci.exe and ghc.exe as "run as administrator".
ghc.exe is able to compile to executables just fine, and runhaskell also
works.
I have a cygwin installation, and running via ghcii.sh in a cygwin shell
exhibits the same hanging behaviour. I've tried removing all signs of
cygwin from my path, but this makes no difference.
I have attached the outputs from "ghci -v5 > ghci.log 2> ghci2.log".
Please let me know if there is any additional information I can provide,
or anything you'd like me to try.
