Simon and I have no idea what's going on here. It doesn't happen for me (on my Windows laptop).
Can anyone else reproduce this behaviour? If so, is anyone willing to dive in a bit deeper and find out more about what is going on? Regardless, creating a Trac bug report would ensure it doesn't lost.

The ghc process takes up 100% of the CPU time, and | seemingly does nothing. | | If "ghci" is used as the argument instead of "ghc", then both ghc and | ghci are left running, with ghc on 100% CPU time. | | In contrast, if hugs or Yhc or edit (or pretty much any program on my | system) is run in exactly the same way, they terminate as soon as the | main program is finished. | | Is there any chance that GHC could do this too? | | Thanks | | Neil _______________________________________________ Glasgow-haskell-bugs mailing list Glasgow-haskell-bugs@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/glasgow-haskell-bugs
