--- Comment #4 from raichoo <raichoo@googlemail.com> ---
Right now that's probably the safest bet. 8.4.1 just introduced DTrace supp=
ort
and it caused these issues, so it's not like people are losing something th=
at
they expect to work, DTrace probes on FreeBSD Haskell is a fairly new thing=
. As
I mentioned before: I currently have a patch in review that fixes this. One
option would be to backport the patch once it has been accepted (It's really
just a couple of changes in the rts makefile). But to be really safe turnin=
g it
off for the binary shipped with pkg currently sounds like the best idea (I =
for
one depend on that to work for bootstrapping quite a lot). I'll test drive =
the
patch for a couple of months to see if it causes any further issues. If
everything works out as expected it'll be safe to turn on dtrace support in
8.6.1 or even within the 8.4 line.
