not a buggie?
Might be a ghc bug due to integer overflow in garbage collector. Can you try unstable 7.4.1 one and check if it still fails for you? I'm afraid that's a major upgrade.

Can you post a dmesg output for it as well? I'm interested hot much memory ghc managged to chew this time. Can you also give memtest a try anf check if your RAM is healthy?
I also have this problem. Attempting to emerge dev-haskell/json-0.4.4 stalls on [4 of 7] Compiling Text.JSON.Parsec ( Text/JSON/Parsec.hs, dist/build/Text/JSON/Parsec.o ) it sits there until it eats up about 90% of my memory (~8GB), then I get scared and kill the process.
Forgot to mention, I've seen this problem on two computers so far, so it's certainly not a ram health issue.
aha. what if you try to limit about of memory by booting kernel with mem= ? Like, say mem=1G mem=nn[KMG] [KNL,BOOT] Force usage of a specific amount of memory Amount of memory to be used when the kernel is not able to see the whole system memory or for test. [X86-32] Use together with memmap= to avoid physical address space collisions. Without memmap= PCI devices could be placed at addresses belonging to unused RAM.

When trying to emerge pandoc, dev-haskell/json also fails after step [4 of 7]. I tested both the gentoo and haskell overlays. The process consumes 100% CPU and about 70-90% RAM until killed. dmesg reports a ghc segfault. ghc[25492]: segfault at 1b5e681 ip 0000000001b5e681 sp 00007ffff8de3d80 error 15 in ghc[1b3c000+1d1000] I was also trying to emerge pandoc. No previous haskell packages were installed. The system is a late 2011 iMac with 8GB RAM, runs amd64, and has no known hardware issues. emerge pandoc successfully builds the following packages before hitting dev-haskell/json: dev-lang:ghc-6.12.3-r2 app-admin:haskell-updater-1.2.0.5-r1 dev-haskell:cabal-1.14.0 dev-haskell:syb-0.3.7 dev-haskell:utf8-string-0.3.7 dev-haskell:time-1.2.0.3 dev-haskell:pandoc-types-1.9.1 dev-haskell:zlib-0.5.3.3 dev-haskell:base64-bytestring-1.0.0.0 dev-haskell:extensible-exceptions-0.1.1.4 dev-haskell:temporary-1.1.2.4 dev-haskell:binary-0.5.1.0 dev-haskell:digest-0.0.1.1 dev-haskell:deepseq-1.3.0.0 dev-haskell:dlist-0.5 dev-haskell:transformers-0.3.0.0 dev-haskell:hs-bibutils-4.15 dev-haskell:mtl-2.1.1 dev-haskell:text-0.11.2.2 dev-haskell:data-default-0.5.0 dev-haskell:random-1.0.1.1 dev-haskell:parsec-3.1.3 dev-haskell:xml-1.3.12 dev-haskell:blaze-builder-0.3.1.0 dev-haskell:tagsoup-0.12.8 dev-haskell:zip-archive-0.1.1.8 dev-haskell:regex-base-0.93.2 dev-haskell:network-2.3.0.14 ps showing the ghc process running for 11 hours: root 24920 99.4 67.3 26417756 11063560 pts/2 Rl Oct15 661:44 /usr/lib64/ghc-6.12.3/ghc -B/usr/lib64/ghc-6.12.3 --make -package-name json-0.5 -hide-all-packages -fbuilding-cabal-package -no-user-package-conf -i -idist/build -i. -idist/build/autogen -Idist/build/autogen -Idist/build -optP-DBASE_4 -optP-include -optPdist/build/autogen/cabal_macros.h -odir dist/build -hidir dist/build -stubdir dist/build -package-id array-0.3.0.1-d386e6865e2443d798e250f58dda005d -package-id base-4.2.0.2-d09520f27d14dc38c6981fa942393083 -package-id bytestring-0.9.1.7-253db8fad875ae549d30aec0d8553adf -package-id containers-0.3.0.0-7be04792060ce1514c52e2cb13a5c18a -package-id mtl-2.1.1-a9e24d65906536a27ac045c961e9b46c -package-id parsec-3.1.3-28e3e3faab28ba67b0ab47cc5bdffde6 -package-id pretty-1.0.1.1-b6652d4fb1f996119a76dcaa986e9d70 -package-id syb-0.3.7-70e6673dba1eb6d1f3e4aee55a796e37 -O -Wall -O2 Text.JSON.Generic Text.JSON.Parsec Text.JSON.Pretty Text.JSON Text.JSON.Types Text.JSON.String Text.JSON.ReadP -optl-Wl,-O1 -optl-Wl,--as-needed

I have the same problem on my system. Upon reaching "[4 of 7] Compiling Text.JSON.Parsec" ghc consumes all of the available system memory until my system becomes unresponsive or the process is killed. I tried Sergei Trofimovich's suggestion of adding GHCRTS='-M2G' to my shell variables, but this results in the process being terminated with a "Memory Exhausted" error. Adding dev-haskell/json -parsec to my /etc/portage/package.use can temporarily solve the problem by avoiding parsec, but as some packages rely on it, it's not really a fix.
@all Do you have a chance to test against ghc-7.4.2?
(In reply to comment #18) > @all > > Do you have a chance to test against ghc-7.4.2? haskell overlay also has ghc-7.6.1. would be interesting to see if it can reproduce the error as well.
Pushed workaround as: > 26 Dec 2012; Sergei Trofimovich <slyfox@gentoo.org> json-0.4.3.ebuild, > json-0.4.4.ebuild, json-0.5.ebuild, json-0.7.ebuild: > Workaround bug #427838 where ghc-6.12.3 hangs building Text.JSON.Parsec by > jinleileiking@gmail.com and others. Thank you!
