Are there any plans to include ghc-paths in ghc itself?
Not at present. It's more difficult to ship it with GHC than it is to
build it post-installation, because it is essentially compiled code that
depends on an install-time variable. Various hairbrained schemes were

The way to use finalizers is in conjunction with an exception handler that
provides an absolute guarantee that the resource will be reclaimed on exit.
Note that Java doesn't guarantee to run finalizers on exit either:
The interaction between solving class constraints and equalities with type
families is currently rather ad hoc.

Hi Bulat,
My contribution to the survey: I've used forkProcess to daemonize
a ghc program inside the haskell fuse bindings:

If removing the non-threaded RTS would break forkProcess
Hi,
As hs-boot is ghc specific method I am asking on this glasgow-haskell-users
mailing list first.
My hprotoc program converts message definitions into Haskell modules, and
mimicking the expected OOP-like namespaces has been successful so far.
It is possible to define messages and keys

Can anyone see how to use hs-boot files to compile the three modules below?
I tried. I failed. I don't think it's possible if we
restrict ourselves to adding {-#SOURCE#-} to the .hs files
and adding .hs-boot files. In any case it's not possible in
all cases. Which
Hello everybody,
I am following A Tutorial on Parallel and Concurrent Programming in
Haskell and I have a problem with making Haskell to use my multi-cores
(Core 2 Quad CPU).
The Haskel version I used is GHC 6.10.1, for Haskell 98. I compile my below
program with command: ghc --make -threaded
