#4034: GHC 6.12.2 fails to build on PowerPC / MacOS X Leopard ------------------------+--------------------------------------------------- Reporter: PHO | Owner: Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Component: Compiler Version: 6.12.2 | Keywords: Os: MacOS X | Testcase: Architecture: powerpc | Failure: Building GHC failed ------------------------+---------------------------------------------------
Comment(by PHO): I found I can avoid the problem by putting the following options to mk/build.mk: {{{ GhcRtsHcOpts = -optc-O0 -optc-g GhcRtsCcOpts = -O0 -g }}} This is my observation so far: * Optimized libHSrts_thr.a causes an evacuate() error. * libHSrts_debug.a causes a segmentation fault. * Unoptimized libHSrts_thr.a looks working. ...so the problem is not likely in gcc's optimizer but in rts. GCC is just revealing the hidden rts bug. -- Ticket URL: <http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/4034#comment:3> GHC <http://www.haskell.org/ghc/> The Glasgow Haskell Compiler _______________________________________________ Glasgow-haskell-bugs mailing list Glasgow-haskell-bugs@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/glasgow-haskell-bugs
