Simplifier ticks exhausted
Trying to build a (rather simple) project using cabal I get the following error message on a valid program:
ghc: panic! (the 'impossible' happened)
(GHC version 7.6.3 for i386-apple-darwin):
Simplifier ticks exhausted
When trying UnfoldingDone a_syQ{v} [lid]
To increase the limit, use -fsimpl-tick-factor=N (default 100)
If you need to do this, let GHC HQ know, and what factor you needed
To see detailed counts use -ddump-simpl-stats
Total ticks: 5080
I tried to increase the limit without success.
More oddly if I try to build directly the program using ghc (same version) it succeeds, therefore I suspect that cabal is somehow the source of my problem.
