I saw this same thing the other day. I recall that some make file variable
like GHC_TOP was ending up empty for some reason. I used the same
workaround as you. I'm on OS X.
I was using a separate build tree and the wrinkle I suspected was that I
cloned nofib and lndir'd it after having already built. HTH

Hi all,
I've just tried running 'make' in nofib and it's not finding ../inplace/bin/ghc-stage2 for some reason. So it tries to execute "/BLAH/ghc/ghc-head/" as if it were ghc (but it's a directory).
The error message is:
/bin/sh: /Users/amos/ghc/ghc-head/: is a directory /bin/sh: line 0: [: -gt: unary operator expected /bin/sh: line 0: [: -ge: unary operator expected ... /Users/amos/ghc/ghc-head/ -H64m -O0 -fasm -O2 -Rghc-timing -package array -H32m -hisuf hi -c Main.hs -o Main.omake[2]: /Users/amos/ghc/ghc-head/: Permission denied
I tried on another box - Linux - and had much the same issue. Has anyone seen this before? Any clues what might be wrong? Nofib was building fine on the Linux box a few weeks ago, but I think it stopped working after a sync-all.
For now though, I'll just try building with
WithNofibHc=/Users/amos/ghc/ghc-head/inplace/bin/ghc-stage2 make which seems to work.
Thanks, Amos
