strange selectee 11

2000-02-13 Thread Alastair Reid
I just converted a program from Hugs to GHC. After running for a while (about 100 garbage collections with the default GC settings), it printed: foo: fatal error: evacuate: THUNK_SELECTOR: strange selectee 11 Looking at the source for 4.02 (a little out of date, I'm using 4.04 on a fr

I don't suppose you guys have a freebsd port of ghc-4.06 up your sleeves do you? We tried using the existing 4.04 port with 4.06 sources but it complained about -lHSlang when linking hsc. Alastair
