[Haskell-cafe] Re: Snow Leopard Breaks GHC

[Christian Maeder]

It seems, bootstrapping cabal went wrong. Does
http://hackage.haskell.org/platform/2009.2.0.2/haskell-platform-2009.2.0.2-i386.dmg
work?

Once cabal works, options --ld-option=-m32 (and also --gcc-option=-m32)
may be used. These options may also be passed to "./Setup configure"

C.
