OK, you've asked for it: Here a picture of ghc-4.00 (CVS snapshot from
Oct 18th, new-rts branch) bootstrapping itself... :-)
/home/inst/glasgow/linux/bin/ghc -cpp -fglasgow-exts -Rghc-timing -I. -IcodeGen
-InativeGen -Iparser
-iutils:basicTypes:types:hsSyn:prelude:rename:typecheck:deSugar:coreSyn:specialise:simplCore:stranal:stgSyn:simplStg:codeGen:absCSyn:main:reader:profiling:parser:nativeGen
-recomp -Onot -H30m -fno-warn-incomplete-patterns -c rename/ParseIface.hs -o
rename/ParseIface.o -osuf o
GHC's heap exhausted;
while trying to allocate 0 bytes in a 65536-byte heap;
use the `-H<size>' option to increase the total heap size.
make[2]: *** [rename/ParseIface.o] Error 1
The memory requirements have been drastically reduced by sophisticated
engineering techniques, using only 0 bytes for large Haskell sources!
More seriously, today's CVS snapshot misses the distrib directory, but
simply copying an older one seems to work.
Cheers,
Sven
