Dunno if you actually consider this a bug or not, but since the message
says to report it... This is on Mac OS X 10.3.5 with GHC 6.2.1.
$ ghci
^Cghc-6.2.1: internal error: main thread has been GC'd
Please report this as a bug to glasgow-haskell-bugs at haskell.org,
or http://www.sourceforge.net/projects/ghc/
In other words, if you press control-C during startup you get this
error message. Not unreasonable, but I suppose if it is easy to check
for such an interrupt it is better not to issue an error message which
advises the user to post a bug report.
ghci works fine for me otherwise, although ghc itself produces bad
executables on OS X. (I have not yet tried the 6.2.1. installation
advice for OS X which appeared on the other list.)
Regards,
Frank
