Bug#890763: ghc: Please include upstream patch to reduce optimization level for unregistered builds
Source: ghc
Version: 8.0.2-11
Severity: normal
Tags: patch
User: debian-68k@lists.debian.org
Usertags: m68k
Hi!
>From time to time, GHC causes various issues when building the unregistered
compiler with -O2 optimization levels. The problems range from miscompiled
code on m68k and sh4 to the assembler crashing on ia64 due to the generated
code.
In order to fix this, upstream contains a change with which reduces the
optimization level for unregistered builds to -O1 [1]. I'm attaching
a backported version of the patch.
Please consider including it in the next upload.
Thanks,
Adrian
