ghc-5.02 build on SunOS 5.6 fails with segmentation fault

[Julian Seward (Intl Vendor)]

Sigbjorn,

Interesting.  We've had no such problem on Solaris 2.7
on sparc.  Our gcc version is 2.95.2, btw.  Pls keep me
informed as we would obviously like to ship a fix for
this prob in 5.02.1 if poss.

J

| Yes, we've seen behaviour like this here on that platform.

| command-line option "-dshow-passes" and it shows up as=20

| here's something you may want to try out:

|  - in mk/build.mk (in the toplevel directory), define the
|    following
|=20
|            GHC_HAPPY_OPTS=3D-g
|=20
|   - in ghc/compiler/ remove the following files
|=20
|        parser/Parser.o parser/Parser.hs
|        parser/ParseIface.o parser/ParseIface.hs
|        main/ParsePkgConf.o main/ParsePkgConf.hs
|=20
|      and do a 'make all'
|=20
|   - with the freshly built contents of ghc/compiler in hand,
|      proceed to ghc/lib and continue.
|=20
| This may or may not address your problem -- I've yet to
| isolate the bug we were running into, but poking around
| with 'gdb' suggested that the string-encoded tables that
| Happy generates when using the options "-agc" was causing
| the problem.
