In my experimental branch, I'm getting this failure on
`tests/ghci/should_run/ghcirun002`:
{{{
<interactive>: internal error: ASSERTION FAILED: file rts/Interpreter.c,
line 778
(GHC version 7.9.20141029 for x86_64_unknown_linux)
}}}
The ASSERTION failure means that I must have `-DDEBUG` in my RTS; I have
no idea why. My `validate.mk` looks like this:
{{{
GhcStage1HcOpts += -ticky -DDEBUG
GhcStage2HcOpts += -ticky
GhcLibHcOpts += -Wwarn -ticky
SplitObjs = YES
}}}
That is mysterious but not the main point. Somehow we are getting a stack
overflow in the interpreter.
So I added this line to `Interpreter` on line 772:
{{{
debugBelch ( "Interpreter Sp=%p SpLim=%p headroom = %ld\n\n", Sp,
SpLim, Sp-SpLim ) ;
}}}
Sure enough, when running test `ghcirun002` on HEAD, I get this output

}}}
So yes, we get into a situation in which we have negative headroom.
Presumably if the ASSERT is off, we simply don't notice. But it's clearly
wrong.
