I've installed a 64-bit and a 32-bit virtual machine with nixos last week, just so that I can try building i686-linux ghc in both. My machines managed to reproduce exactly this hash (that fails on hydra): http://hydra.nixos.org/build/8427491 /nix/store/x1h3f7fg0ci9ybgs793v3x772k68jpbl-ghc-7.6.3 i686 5/5 times, amd64 7/7 times. Without any out of memory issues. So this must be some system setting issue on Hydra machines. How should we debug this? Can you please show my a "sysctl -a" output and a "ulimit -a" output in the same environment as being used by the GHC build on Hydra? Alternatively, is there some README/wiki/etc on setting up an exact replica of ike or kenny for testing? Or can you make an LVM snapshot of one of them and upload it somewhere (I can provide the space for it of course)? Not having an i686 GHC (and therefore git-annex, etc.) in binary cache is a really big issue for me :( So I'm happy to do what it takes to fix it.
