I believe I have fixed this.  (It was my fault, late last week.)

I'm compiling now to test.  Meanwhile it'd be worth your having another
go.

| I updated from HEAD recently, and got some strange error messages
| while building the stuff under libraries/X11:
| 
| ../../ghc/compiler/ghc-inplace -H32m -O0 -W -fno-warn-unused-matches
| -fwarn-unused-imports -cpp -fffi -Iinclude -I/usr/X11R6/include
| -ignore-package X11 -O -dcore-lint -W -fno-warn-unused-matches
| -fwarn-unused-imports -keep-hc-files  -package base -fgenerics    -c
| Graphics/X11/Xlib/Font.hs -o Graphics/X11/Xlib/Font.o  -ohi
| Graphics/X11/Xlib/Font.hi
| 
| Font.hsc:70:0:
|     Unacceptable argument type in foreign declaration: Display
|     When checking declaration:
| 	foreign import ccall unsafe "static HsXlib.h &XQueryFont"
queryFont :: Display
|
-> Font
|
-> IO FontStruct
| 
| ...as well as several others for the same file, along the same lines.
| 
| I am none the wiser by the messages, but the comment for
| ghc/compiler/prelude/TysWiredIn.lhs#rev1.75 seems to be related.  Is
| this a regression?
| 
| BTW, could someone give me a clue what the point is with a type like
| the one mentioned?
