According to alan czarnecki:

You succeeded to build the compiler, but during the compilation of the run time system (RTS), the compiler crashes. In order to locate the problem, please call `xgpc' manually with the additional option `-dY': ../../xgpc -B../../ -dY rts-base.p Then `xgpc' will dump the source it compiles to standard error, so we can see where the crash occures. Another such option is `-dy': ../../xgpc -B../../ -dy rts-base.p which tells `xgpc' to output parser debugging information to standard error. The last lines of this dump will contain a line number in the GPC source file `parse.y' telling us about the last piece of code that was executed.
