Comment:

 The latest [http://hackage.haskell.org/package/stm stm-2.2.0.1] seems to
 build fine on both ghc-6.12.3 and on ghc-HEAD. So I'm closing this bug.

 The only strange thing is that my up to date stm repository does not
 include the fix and my stm.cabal still lists 2.2.0.0 as the version. Simon
 Marlow probably didn't push his patches yet.
