GHCI crashes on Mac OS X

[Frank Atanassow]

Hi guys,

I'm using GHCI to run code output by Generic Haskell. As I'm sure 
you're aware, GH is a preprocessor. Every once in a while, I 
accidentally load a .ghs file (GH input) rather than the resulting .hs, 
and GHCI crashes with a segmentation fault:

merulo 536 ~/share/cvs/GH-Papers/data-binding $ ghci -fglasgow-exts 
-i$GH_HOME/lib/Prelude ExampleIso.ghs
    ___         ___ _
   / _ \ /\  /\/ __(_)
  / /_\// /_/ / /  | |      GHC Interactive, version 6.0.1, for Haskell 
98.
/ /_\\/ __  / /___| |      http://www.haskell.org/ghc/
\____/\/ /_/\____/|_|      Type :? for help.

Loading package base ... linking ... done.
Loading object (static) ExampleIso.ghs ... Segmentation fault

I don't understand the message on the last line. Is GHC confusing GH 
source files with something else that has the same extension?

Anyway...

ExampleIso.ghs depends on some other files, but those don't get loaded 
so I assume you don't need them. I can also leave off all the flags and 
it still crashes.

Here is the info:

merulo 543 ~/share/cvs/GH-Papers/data-binding $ uname -a

Thanks.
