[Caml-list] OCaml 3.10.2 on Tru64

[Ionut Georgescu]

Hello,

I am trying to build OCaml 3.10.2 for Tru64, but it keeps failing with
"Out of memory" when compiling camlp4/boot/Camlp4.ml. I have already
increased the stacksize

ulimit -s 65536

Is there anything else I can do?

Thanks a lot,
Ionut

Do:

export OCAMLRUNPARAM=v=0x1ff

and then see if the bug looks like this:

If it is, then the best I can suggest is to use OCaml 3.11 from CVS.

Hi Richard,

thank you for your answer. Both 3.10.2 and 3.11 CVS fail with the same
"out of memory" message.

Here is the output with OCAMLRUNPARAM=0x1ff

It doesn't seem to be the bug I was thinking of. I've no idea whether
Tru64 supports some equivalent of 'strace', but you could try stracing
the failing process to see why it's really failing. (eg. stack? heap?)
