Lennart,

do you imply that you have fixed the problem causing the crashes?
May I safely assume that DLLs produced by ghc 6.4.2 will not crash upon being freed?


I wanted to test the fix for ticket #711 but I am stuck because there is no current snapshot of ghc 6.5 for mingw. (The last one is dated end of February, the patch was commited on March, 2nd.)

The patch hasn't been committed at all, AFAIK.

I saw that the patch is scheduled for milestone 6.4.2 but has been commited only for 6.5. When will it be available for 6.4.2?

I started learning to compile ghc and I have succeeded with the current head of the 6.4 branch on Debian Linux/testing. Next step is to compile the head on this system. My current problem is a missing symbol when linking stage1/ghc-6.5, namely u_gencat referenced by stage1/parser/Lexer.o. Am I missing some library?
(I think my sources are up to date, I pulled only half an hour ago.)

When compiling with 6.4.1 or later, u_gencat should come from libHSbase_cbits.a in your 6.4.1 installation. Is it there?

Cheers,
        Simon
