meta-haskell-branch

[Simon Peyton-Jones]

I have seen this before and it puzzled the hell out of me too.

To be honest I have forgotten the exact cause, but it's something to do
with the fact that you haven't done a new 'autoconf' or a new
'configure' or something.

Much the easiest thing is to start from scratch.  Check out an entirely
new tree, and work from there.  Odd things sometimes happen when you
have an old tree lying around, esp after a big update.

| Thanks for the pointer. I still get the following error, when I do
gmake.

| It seems ghc-inplace has some problem:
