ghc-6.6 crashed after being built on linux (fedora core)
I downloaded ghc-6.6 source and built it from ghc-6.4.2 (which I previously built on this same machine). The newly built binary doesnt work.
root@discover# ghc-6.6
Segmentation fault
Upon investigation it looks like the stage1 compiler doesnt crash but the stage2 compiler does:
root@discover# compiler/stage1/ghc-6.6
ghc-6.6: missing -B<dir> option
root@discover# compiler/stage2/ghc-6.6
Segmentation fault
root@discover# gdb compiler/stage2/ghc-6.6
