Unregistered build (was Re: AMD64)

[Gerd M]

Well I just tried it and that's what happened:
------------------------------------------------------------------------
==fptools== make boot - --no-print-directory -r;
in ghc-6.2.1/ghc/utils/ghc-pkg
------------------------------------------------------------------------
ghc-test/usr/bin/ghc -M -optdep-f -optdep.depend  -osuf o    -H16m -O -cpp 
-DPKG_TOOL -DWANT_PRETTY -DGHC_PKG_VERSION=6.2.1 Main.hs Package.hs 
ParsePkgConfLite.hs
Main.hs:87: warning: backslash and newline separated by space
Main.hs:259: warning: backslash and newline separated by space
Main.hs:260: warning: backslash and newline separated by space
make all
ghc-test/usr/bin/ghc -H16m -O -cpp -DPKG_TOOL -DWANT_PRETTY 
-DGHC_PKG_VERSION=6.2.1    -c Main.hs -o Main.o  -ohi Main.hi

make[3]: *** [boot] Error 2
make[2]: *** [boot] Error 1
make[1]: *** [boot] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `ghc-6.2.1/ghc'

I also tried to build the standalone "happy" and got the same error:

==fptools== make all -wr;
in happy-1.14/happy/src
------------------------------------------------------------------------
make INSTALLING=0 BIN_DIST=0 - --no-print-directory -r all
ghc-test/usr/bin/ghc -H16m -O -cpp -fglasgow-exts -package lang -O  
-DHAPPY_VERSION=1.14  -c Version.hs -o Version.o  -ohi Version.hi
Version.hs:3: warning: backslash and newline separated by space
Version.hs:3: lexical error in string/character literal
make[3]: *** [Version.o] Error 1
make[2]: *** [all] Error 2
make[1]: *** [all] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `happy-1.14/happy'
