According to conventional wisdom, when gcc segfaults on a big compilation job (e.g., the Linux kernel), it could be a sign of a transient memory error; gcc exercises the RAM so much that the error rate on a typical computer's memory chips can have a practical effect.
I believe that you're probably correct in this case: I was able to get ghc 6.6 + optional packages built on a linode virtual host (guessing from the original poster's prompt) but only after expanding the amount of memory available. -- Paul _______________________________________________ Haskell-Cafe mailing list Haskell-Cafe@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe
