problems building the GHC as a package

[Simon Peyton-Jones]

[redirecting to ghc-bugs]

You're falling over the first time you invoke GHC on any file, which happens to be Adjustor.c

Try ......./ghc/compiler/ghc-inplace -c Foo.hs 
on some random Haskell file.  The ghc-inplace file is a little script that invokes
	.../ghc/compiler/stage1/ghc-inplace
so it might perhaps be broken somehow.  What's in it?  Mine contains
	#!/bin/sh
	exec /c/fptools-HEAD/ghc/compiler/stage1/ghc -B/c/fptools-HEAD "$@"

| Subject: problems building the GHC as a package
| 
| Hi folks,
| 
| I'm having a little problem when building the GHC as a package.
| I've set the option 'BuildPackageGHC=YES' in the build.mk file and
| done the usual steps to build the GHC under windows
| (including the './configure --host=i386-unknown-mingw32
| --with-gcc=c:/mingw/bin/gcc').
| But I'm getting the following error in the middle of the build process:
| 
| -------------------------------------------------------------------
