Public bug reported:
If you're merging 6.10.3 into karmic, you might want to consider also
pulling in this change from the forthcoming 6.10.4. It fixes a problem
that can randomly cause segfaults in code that uses ForeignPtrs, and
there's no workaround. The fix will not cause a change in ABIs, so
shouldn't force a recompile of dependent packages.
Source package: 6.10.3-2ubuntu1
Fix:
Fri May 15 10:23:56 BST 2009 Simon Marlow <marlo...@gmail.com>

mkWeakForeignEnvzh_fast );
+ ALLOC_PRIM( SIZEOF_StgWeak, R1_PTR & R2_PTR, mkWeakForeignEnvzh_fast );
