what about running the garbage collector for such errors, just in case it can help? all resources that can be freed by the garbage collector should trigger a GC when that resource is low, uh? (maybe that's what ghc-5.02 is doing since i've not been able to reproduce the pb after increasing the heap) _______________________________________________ Glasgow-haskell-bugs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/glasgow-haskell-bugs
