Building GHC 5.02 on Solaris x86

[Ian Lynagh]

I am trying to build GHC 5.02 on an x86 Solaris machine (with the x86 HC
stuff) and I am getting this error:


gcc -x c MArray.hc -o MArray.raw_s -S -O  -fno-defer-pop -fomit-frame-pointer   -DDONT_WANT_WIN32_DLL_SUPPORT -D__GLASGOW_HASKELL__=502  -O   -I/tmp/foo/ghc-5.02/ghc/includes -I/tmp/foo/ghc-5.02/ghc/lib/std/cbits -I/tmp/foo/ghc-5.02/hslibs/lang/cbits -I/tmp/foo/ghc-5.02/hslibs/posix/cbits -I/tmp/foo/ghc-5.02/hslibs/util/cbits -I/tmp/foo/ghc-5.02/hslibs/text/cbits -I/tmp/foo/ghc-5.02/hslibs/hssource/cbits  -I../../ghc/lib/std/cbits -I../../ghc/includes -Icbits    -I.  `echo  | sed 's/^$/-DSTOLEN_X86_REGS=4/'`

make[1]: *** [MArray.raw_s] Error 1
make: *** [all] Error 1

I have also fount it neccesary to add
/tmp/foo/ghc-5.02/ghc/driver/mangler to the path for ghc-asm - should
this be needed?


Thanks
