[Haskell-cafe] trouble installing ghc 6.6: xargs: /usr/bin/ar: terminated by signal 11

[tphyahoo]

I'm having trouble installing ghc 6.6. On ubuntu, virtual server (user mode
linux).

Something seems to be killing the process, no idea why.

Anyone seen this? 

I looked around with ps to see if anything looked suspicious. I do have a
lot of screens open, but I don't see why that should matter. There is no
instance of haskell or gnci running.

after running configure with no problem.....

~$ cd ghc-6.6/
~/ghc-6.6$ sudo make &>makeOut
Password:
~/ghc-6.6$ tail -n8 makeOut
