Perhaps they should be added to the GHC distribution? Well, the fact that we have to keep adding this helps to remind us that there's a bug to be fixed (plus the fact it's in my ToDo list and on the whiteboard in fairly big letters :-) Anyway, adding -dcore-lint is a generally good idea, and if you use the latest happy from the CVS repository it has some NOINLINE pragmas which bring the residency when compiling ParseIface.hs down to a perfectly respectable 16M or thereabouts. Now, the happy parser I'm working on for GHC is a different matter... Cheers, Simon

IIRC, -dcore-lint radically cuts down the heap required for the compilation of this module. And try -funfolding-use-threshold0 too. Cheers, Simon

Hello. On Wed, May 19, 1999 at 10:16:54AM +0200, Thomas Pasch wrote: I tried to compile 4.02 from sources on a ix86-linux-glibc2.1 machine and found that this is simply impossible. But when it cames to compile ParselFace.hs in ghc/compiler/rename the Heap was exhausted. One solution is to add "GhcHcOpts = -optCrts-M100m" to mk/build.mk I downloaded the current source code. Ungzipping is possible with no errors but taring afterwards leads to a checksum error. Did you try tar xzf foo.tar.gz ? I have had no problems with unpacking the source archives. This suggests old/buggy tar or gzip (unlikely) or some corruption of the archive somehow. Giuliano -- [EMAIL PROTECTED]

In my previous message I suggested "GhcHcOpts = foo", this should have been "+=". Giuliano -- [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Isn't it about time a note about -dcore-lint was placed on http://research.microsoft.com/users/t-simonm/ghc/download_ghc_402.html Ok, Ok. Done. Simon
