On Linux, compiling it with a vanilla GHC 4.04 (ie, the
Linux rpm linked from the GHC Web site) gave me a heap
overflow when compiling parser/Parser.hs. With
`-optCrts-M70m' it works. The _problem_ with that is that
everybody who attempts to compile 4.06 with 4.04 on Linux
will run into this => many postings to glasgow-haskell-bugs.
In other words, I think, it is important that a new release
can be compiled with the previous _offcial_release_ (not
only the last CVS version) on all architectures without any
patches.
