#4012: Different stage2 results depending on the version of the bootstrapping
compiler
---------------------------------+------------------------------------------
Reporter: kili | Owner:
Type: bug | Status: new
Priority: normal | Component: Build System
Version: 6.12.2 | Keywords:
Os: OpenBSD | Testcase:
Architecture: Unknown/Multiple | Failure: Other
Patch: 0 |
---------------------------------+------------------------------------------
Short story: if you use ghc-6.12.1.20100318 (or similar, probably
ghc-6.12.1 release will produce the same results) to bootstrap
ghc-6.12, and then use that ghc-6.12 to bootstrap another ghc-6.12,
those two instances of ghc-6.12 will have different ABI hashes and
interfaces in the ghc package. If you use ghc-6.10 for the
bootstrapping, you'll even get differences in the ghc, base and
Cabal packages.
Long story: see logfiles and descriptions at http://darcs.volkswurst.de
/boot-tests/ (note that the logfiles are quite large, I really don't want
to attach 150 MB of logs to this ticket).
