Ah, good catch!  Thank you.

Ryan: might you fix this, since you authored the offending commit?  Thanks!

Hi Simon,

Sorry for the broken build again. Since your last email I do run a nightly build, but you were about an hour and a half before today’s build!

Anyway, I believe the offending commit is 8c6a3d68c0301bb985aa2a462936bbcf7584ae9c ,
This unconditionally adds GHC.Event which then includes that TimerManager which is defined for POSIX only.

Reverting that should get you building again.

Cheers,
Tamar

I really wish I did not have to be the Windows integration server.
Currently, from a clean build of HEAD, I’m getting

libraries\base\GHC\Event\TimerManager.hs:62:3: error:

     error: #error not implemented for this operating system

     # error not implemented for this operating system

       ^
I’d revert something if I could, but I can’t see what to revert.  Help, please!
Simon
