GHCi leaks in DEBUG mode
The solution to ticket #15111 (closed) fixes some space leaks in GHCi. That ticket also installs -fghci-leak-check to the testsuite, so that we'll know when these leaks return. This is all good.
However, the DEBUG compile still leaks in GHCi. This means that many ghci tests fail in the testsuite when using a DEBUG compiler.
I thus have two requests:
- (hopefully quick) Teach the testsuite not to use
-fghci-leak-checkon aDEBUGcompiler. I tried to do this myself but got lost, never having worked on the testsuite harness. - Fix the leaks.
If someone could post the fix to (1) in the short term (even if you don't commit it), I'd be grateful. This is holding me up.
