Summary0000109: rotd-2009-10-05's library install fails for grade hlc
DescriptionI'm installing Mercury rotd-2009-10-05, with libgrade hlc. "make" seems to run without problems, but while in "make install", I get the following message and the install terminates:

What about grade "hlc.gc"? It worked for me on Linux. (Nonetheless it does look like a bug.)

janicek (reporter)

hlc.gc works. However, I wanted to suppress garbage collection as it randomly causes SIGBUSes in my code (which is my fault, I suppose, probably some stray pointers caused by sloppy interfacing to C++...)

janicek (reporter)

Is there perhaps a way to *delay* garbage collection as much as possible? That would also be helpful (to me right now, not solving this issue of course).

wangp (developer)

You can use hlc.gc but set the GC_DONT_GC environment variable to switch it off completely. There are other environment variables (from Boehm GC) which let you set the initial heap size, etc.

janicek (reporter)

That helped, thanks!

juliensf (administrator)

What is the reason you are using the hlc grade? Grades without
garbage collection are not generally useful. (It should still
work of course.)

juliensf (administrator)

Sorry, didn't see the above.

I have uploaded a cut-down test case for this bug.
It appears to be a problem with --reclaim-heap-on-failure.
