 ghc-5.02 has a known bug on Win32 only, which causes all
 programs compiled with it to die silently when the heap size
 reaches 128 megabytes.  This is fixed in the upcoming 5.02.1.

 You did not say what version ghc you are using or give any
 other details.  If you tell us more we might be able to help
 more.

Sorry that I was not more specific in my previous mail. Yes, it is
the known bug of heaps larger than 128m on Windows. Simon M. 
helped me to figure that out yesterday evening.

Thanks to both of you

Sven Eric

We need more info, in particular an example of a program that crashes.
Does it crash in the same way every time?  Does it depend on what GC
options you use?

Cheers,
Simon
