Bug#869356: ghc: Eats gigabytes of memory when compiling haskell-skylighting

[Samuel Thibault]

Source: ghc
Version: 8.0.2-5
Severity: important

Hello,

As https://buildd.debian.org/status/package.php?p=haskell-skylighting
shows, haskell-skylighting fails to build on a lot of architectures,
from getting out of memory. I have indeed observed the RSS to be going
very high during the build, more than a Gigabyte...
