[Haskell-cafe] Compiling hugs - stop on missing symbol

[Dusan Kolar]

Hello all,

  I don't know if this is the right place to ask about
how to compile hugs, but I'll try. :-)

My machine identifies this way:
Linux mymachine 2.6.14 #1 SMP Mon Oct 31 10:55:16 CET 2005 i686 athlon 
i386 GNU/Linux

I've downloaded this SRC package of hugs:
hugs98-Mar2005-patched.tar.gz

Download, unpack - OK

./configure --prefix=/mnt/data/FLP --enable-timer
does not complain, suggests to perform make; make install

Unfortunately, make stops with this error:

gcc  runhugs.o server.o builtin.o char.o compiler.o errors.o evaluator.o 
ffi.o goal.o input.o machdep.o machine.o module.o opts.o output.o 
plugin.o script.o static.o storage.o strutil.o subst.o type.o version.o  
-lreadline -lncurses -lm -ldl  -o runhugs
evaluator.o(.text+0x137): In function `evaluator':
/mnt/data/FLP/Downloads/hugs98-Mar2005-patched/src/evaluator.c:98: 
undefined reference to `updateTimers'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make: *** [runhugs] Error 1

Well, yes, the symbol is definitely missing, as timer.c, which defines 
the symbol,
is included in hugs.c, which is not in the list of linked files. 
Nevertheless,
I don't think including the file manually would help. Moreover, probably 
configure
has produced a wrong Makefile.

Any suggestions how to make it work?
