Thanks for the report, sorry for the late reaction, summer term is
slowly reaching it's climax.
It's a filename case sensitivity problem:
On MacOS, HSreadline.o, the ghci version of GHC's readline library, is
overwritten by HsReadline.o, object file for the C-file "HsReadline.c",
which contains some glue code.
Question to "the bosses": should I rename HsReadline.c to
HsReadline_cbits.c by cvs-removing it and then cvs-adding it? Do I just
have to do that separately for the HEAD and STABLE branches?
Cheers,
Wolfgang
