5869,Compiling the Haskell bindings for ROSE causes a ghc panic,axch,,"I tried to build the ROSE compiler infrastructure project
(rosecompiler.org) on my Debian box.  I managed to coerce everything
else into at least appearing to work, but when GHC was compiling the
Haskell bindings module, it crashed and asked me to report the crash
as a bug, so I am doing so.  I should note that the configure script
supplied with ROSE refused to configure in the absence of GHC 6.10
until I edited it, so perhaps this issue is known, at least to the
ROSE team (or maybe they had something else in mind).  Anyway, I am
reporting the bug like I was told.

I'm running Debian Squeeze on x86_64, GHC version 6.12.1.  Here is the
relevant portion of the output from make:

ghc: panic! (the 'impossible' happened)
  (GHC version 6.12.1 for x86_64-unknown-linux):
	RegAllocLinear.getStackSlotFor: out of stack slots
   If you are trying to compile SHA1.hs from the crypto library then this
   is a known limitation in the linear allocator.

   Try enabling the graph colouring allocator with -fregs-graph instead.   You can still file a bug report if you like.


Please report this as a GHC bug:  http://www.haskell.org/ghc/reportabug
Debian-specific note: please remove old .hi files and try again.
For details, see /usr/share/doc/ghc6/README.Debian

I also enclose the offending source file as an attachment, in case
that will help.

Thank you,
