Sounds like the behaviour of the amd64 *registerised* build, not an unregisterised one? > It's exactly the same problem with my home made build so I don't think it's of > much use at the moment. *sigh* openbsd/amd64 runs fine, and the Haskell ports on this arch (darcs, alex, happy..) all work. SimonM built a working amd64-linux build about a year ago, so it does run on linux. Someone needs to dive in and debug this for linux, because the above problem isn't a limitation of the amd64 GHC port, but something linux specific. <bsd>or you could switch to a different OS ;)</bsd> -- Don _______________________________________________ Glasgow-haskell-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/glasgow-haskell-users
