I'm trying to build the latest version of GHC, from CVS, and everything goes
fine until it gets to the file Parser.hs. At this point, it gets stuck on this
file for a couple of hours, then quits with either an "out of memory" message
or the message "Haskell compiler received signal 9". I've tried increasing the
memory settings for Parser.hs in the Makefile (the corresponding line as I
currently have it is:
parser/Parser_HC_OPTS += -Onot -H256m -optCrts-M256m -K2m -fno-warn-
incomplete-patterns
), but it made no difference. I'm on a Linux workstation with 64 MB of
physical RAM and 200 MB of swap space. How much memory is actually necessary
to compile this file?
Thanks,
kirsten
