I just tried it here on my system using: - QEMU compiled from git HEAD. - ghc 7.6.3-6 from Debian
and I was able to start compiling GHC from git. I didn't let it run to completion because I only have my laptop available at the moment. I suggest you try debugging some more and maybe try building something smaller than GHC. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of qemu- devel-ml, which is subscribed to QEMU. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1042388 Title: qemu: Unsupported syscall: 257 (timer_create) Status in QEMU: Confirmed Bug description: Running qemu-arm-static for git HEAD.
