Hi,

I have tried to install the newest available binary distribution of GHC for
AIX (6.8.2).
Unfortunately, it didn't work properly. Following the trivial installation
steps as described
in INSTALL file I executed the following commands:

    1) ./configure --prefix=/home/nik/local
    2) gmake install

But I got the following error message:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
....
Reading package info from stdin ... done.
warning: can't find GHCi lib HSrts.o
Saving old package config file... done.
Writing new package config file... done.

Am I missing something?
Any help is very much appreciated!
