[Haskell-cafe] Problem building HXQ on Mac OS 10.5.5

[Tobias Kräntzer]

Hi,

I'm new to haskell and wonted to start tinkering a bit with this  
language, specifically with HXQ. I have installed ghc with macports.

Now while building HXQ I get the following error:

Main.hs:20:9:
     Not in scope: type constructor or class `C.SomeException'

Unfortunately I'm also new to Mac OS X. Before I developed on Linux.
It would be great, if someone could give me a hint.

Thanks,
Tobias
