:print panics GHCi with overloaded values
After starting GHCi, using the debugger to print certain functions causes a panic. For example, the following statements all cause GHCi to panic and quit:
:print (+)
:print print
:print log
Other functions, such as head
, tail
, and fst
are shown by the debugger properly as <function>
, with no error.
This behavior is identical on PPC and i386 platforms, running OS X (10.4/10.5 respectively).
