Segmentation fault in ghc-6-2-branch-in-place

[Simon Peyton-Jones]

To compile the 6.2 branch with itself, you do not need to install it and
reconfigure.

Just say 
	make
in fptools/, and it'll build ghc/compiler/stage1/ghc-inplace, build the
libraries, and then go back to ghc/compiler and build
ghc/compiler/stage2/ghc-inplace.

Chaos will result I if you change which GHC you are using in a
particular tree, because the compilation manager will think that .hi and
.o files are up to date, whereas they aren't.  I suspect, but I'm not
sure, that this is what's happening.

I urge you strongly to type
	make
in fptools/!  Since you are now messed up, it might be safer to start
with 'make clean'.

I hope that you have the following in fptools/:
	fptools/ghc
	fptools/libraries

| 
| Dear GHC developers,
| 
| I have built the   cvs update -r 6-2-branch   in my home dir.
| 
| It was compiled by  ghc-6.2.1 official and istalled in
|                                            .../ghcCVS/inst
| 
| It worked in some examples, but as I wrote you, some errors appear.
| Now I am trying to rebuild  6-2-branch  from the same source by
| itself:
| 
|    > cd myfptools
|    > ./configure --prefix=/home/mechvel/ghcCVS/inst2
|                  GHC=/home/mechvel/ghcCVS/inst/bin/ghc
|    > make all
| 
| And it reports
|
