You make it sound like this happens *fast*.
Interesting.... the command that causes the problems is (with the
haskell-modes directory):
xemacs -no-autoloads -vanilla -batch -eval '(setq stack-trace-on-error
t load-always-display-messages t load-ignore-out-of-date-elc-files t
load-show-full-path-in-messages t)' -eval '(setq load-path (list
lisp-directory))' -l
/home/ayqazi/src/packages/xemacs/cvs/packages/package-compile.el --
dired mail-lib xemacs-base edit-utils -- -l comint -l cus-face -l
font-lock -l func-menu -l imenu -l haskell-mode -l haskell-indent -f
batch-byte-compile auto-autoloads.el
Interestingly, it sucks up all my memory within a few seconds when I
run it via 'make bytecompile' - however, when I run it manually on the
command line, it core-dumps, making bug posting much easier, which I
intend to do.
