Yes, as you stated, not an HP problem. I did a cabal update and got past
this problem. I still can't install threadscope but I don't believe this is
an HP platform problem so I'll follow up with the threadscope people and
won't post again to this group
Thanks
[10 of 35] Compiling GUI.ProgressView ( GUI/ProgressView.hs,
dist/build/threadscope/threadscope-tmp/GUI/ProgressView.o )
GUI/ProgressView.hs:92:15:
Could not deduce (System.Glib.UTFString.GlibString string0)
arising from a use of ‘labelNew’
from the context (WindowClass win)
bound by the type signature for
new :: WindowClass win => win -> IO () -> IO ProgressView
at GUI/ProgressView.hs:79:8-57
The type variable ‘string0’ is ambiguous
Note: there are several potential instances:
instance System.Glib.UTFString.GlibString
text-1.1.0.0:Data.Text.Internal.Text
-- Defined in ‘System.Glib.UTFString’
instance System.Glib.UTFString.GlibString [Char]
-- Defined in ‘System.Glib.UTFString’
In a stmt of a 'do' block: progText <- labelNew Nothing
In the expression:
do { win <- windowNew;
set win [containerBorderWidth := 10, windowTitle := "", ....];
progText <- labelNew Nothing;
set progText [miscXalign := 0, labelUseMarkup := True];
.... }
In an equation for ‘new’:
new parent cancelAction
= do { win <- windowNew;
set win [containerBorderWidth := 10, ....];
progText <- labelNew Nothing;
.... }

Installation worked fine. However I encountered a problem that looks like a regression, although it may be a problem with new versions of the package I am trying to install:
It's not an H-P problem; Apple's started using their BLOCKS C extension in system headers, and gtk2hsc2hs doesn't understand it. (And possibly is not using cpp properly when processing headers.) You'll need to take this up with the gtk2hs folks.
