Suggested algorithm to control upper bound of space "leaks"

2009-10-31 Thread Shelby Moore

Out of curiosity, I just validated on Linux (on some flavour of 32-bit Debian), too — it doesn't look much better: Unexpected failures: Base1(normal) Compose(normal) PList1(normal) PList2(normal) T1969(normal) T3007(normal) T3294(normal) boxy(normal) break008(ghci)
