What does
    make show VALUE=BASE_LIBDIR
say in testsuite/tests?
BASE_LIBDIR="/usr/home/user/ghc-validate/libraries/base/dist-install/build
              /usr/local/lib"
Ah, it seems there is another directory added?  I was completely under
the impression that the problem is that the binary distribution is
installed to the directory with spaces in its name.
Oh, sorry, it's actually
    make show VALUE=BASE_LIBDIR BINDIST=YES
that we want.

What command is being run to cause the error?
I guess this is the HAVE_* lines, the [ -f file ] part that you have
changed in the commit.
Right, but what does the actual shell command look like once all the
make variable expansion has happened?


Thanks
