In hsrc/ghmklib and Contrib/Makefile, there are options for which make
tool to use. I think the 030414 version uses humake by default.

The fudget library was created long before GHC's package system and has
not (yet) adapted to use it, so instead we provide two wrapper scripts
that pass the right flags to GHC. So, do

    ghcxmake myfirstfudgetsapp

(requres hmake) or

    ghuxmake myfirstfudgetsapp

(requires humake). You can include additional flags to pass to GHC.

Also, some recent binary snapshots (I added a new one for GHC 5.04.3
today) are availalbe from

    http://www.cse.ogi.edu/~hallgren/untested/

We have fixed some small bugs and performance problems since the h13w
version.

global configuration file is an inherently bad idea...
