It seems that profiling and threading are not supported at the same

So I just wanted to be sure that I really need threading. I'm passing
text through some filters written in perl, just ordinary command line
programs. I do it like this:
do
(hin, hout, herr, ph) <- runInteractiveProcess cmd args Nothing Nothing
forkIO $ hPutStr hin content >> hClose hin
out <- hGetContents hout
return (ph, out)
which seems to require threading. If I compile without, it will hang
indefinitely, I presume deadlocked. Is there a way this can be done
without threading?
You certainly can use threading with profiling, just not the "threaded RTS"
that you get with the -threaded option. There are certain restrictions
that apply when you don't use -threaded, but ordinary forkIO works fine.
