Hello, I recently ran up against bug #6 on a Mac (Leopard 10.5.2, c2hs .15.1). This results in the error c2hs: Error in C header file. /usr/include/available.h:85: (column 5) [FATAL]
Lexical error! The character '#' does not fit here.
I added some information to the bug report based on my experimentation, and would like to say that I've found a workaround. By running c2hs with these options: --cpp=gcc --cppopts=-E --cppopts=-xc I was able to successfully build the interface. This works with cabal builds as well by passing the options during configure with --c2hs-options. I'm pretty certain that this is due to some sort of failure in Apple's cpp and not a problem with c2hs. Can anyone else confirm this? Cheers, John Lato
