The following hint code causes GHCi to crash under Windows:
runInterpreter $ loadModules ["SomeModule.hs"]
The error message is:
GHCi runtime linker: fatal error: I found a duplicate definition for
symbol _hs_gtWord64 whilst processing object file
C:\Programme\Haskell Platform\2009.2.0.2\ghc-prim-0.1.0.0
HSghc-prim-0.1.0.o
This could be caused by:
* Loading two different object files which export the same symbol
* Specifying the same object file twice on the GHCi command line
* An incorrect `package.conf' entry, causing some object to be
loaded twice.
GHCi cannot safely continue in this situation. Exiting now. Sorry.
The problem does not occur under Unix or with a compiled program. IMHO
hint tries to start a second instance of GHCi which is not
allowed/possible under Windows. If this is the case a more telling
error
message would be helpful.
