Hi,

recently I've upgraded my RedHat box from 8 to 9. This immediately gave =
rise to a lot of problem due to incompatibility (I guess). When I try to =
compile my haskell library, for example (HaXml), it halted with this =
error message


/usr/local/lib/ghc-5.02.3/libHSrts.a(RtsFlags.o)(.text+0x1b0): In =
function `setupRtsFlags':
: undefined reference to `__ctype_b'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

I then try to recompile my ghc from source, the compilation terminates =
with the same error.

for which I thought it is due to update on static links from glibc =
version 2.2 to 2.3. But I think this has already been fixed by some =
previous version.=20

This problem is resolved until I reverted my glibc package back to =
2.3.2-4.80

Any of you have ever encoutered the same issue?

Regards,
Kenny
