3171,threadDelay causes Ctrl-C to be ignored when running interpreted code,chowells,igloo,"the following program:
{{{
import Control.Concurrent
import Control.Concurrent.MVar
main = threadDelay 0 >> newEmptyMVar >>= takeMVar
}}}
will not respond to Ctrl-C when run via runghc, but does respond to Ctrl-C when compiled and executed.

If the threadDelay is removed, it does respond to Ctrl-C both compiled and interpreted.

In 6.10.1, Ctrl-C has the normal effect whether the program is run compiled or interpreted.

The editline segmentation fault bug prevented us from testing the behavior in ghci.",merge,closed,normal,6.10 branch,Runtime System,6.10.2,fixed,runghc,,Linux,x86,,Unknown,,,,
