With runghc and ghci you get the threaded rts by default. For compiled standalone programs the single threaded rts is still the default. You have to link using the -threaded flag to get the threaded rts. > and yes, i had SERIOUS problems with it in my GUI program :) Yeah, it's a long-standing tricky issue.
