Package: washngo
Version: 2.12-5
Severity: serious

Washngo fails to build on 32-bit platforms with non-registrised ghc6.
This is caused by three large source (or generated source) files:

WASH/HTML/HTMLPrelude98.hs
WASH/HTML/HTMLMonad98.hs
WASH/HTML/HTMLPrelude.hs

Compiling those eventually (after more than 30 minutes) results in .hc
files of about 30 MB (!). Then gcc-4.3 is invoked which some minutes
later gets killed when it comes close to the maximum process size.

I believe those files should be split into smaller units, or the build
should generate several smaller object files by other means. (From the
ghc6 documentation I infer that -split-objs is not the answer.)
