I had a similar problem on a Mac (and clang) that I could solve by updating to the versions of (happy and) alex that you already use. Are you sure that Lexer.hs was freshly (re-)generated? HTH Christian Am 02.04.2014 09:14, schrieb Herbert Valerio Riedel:
Hello *,
I've been trying to compile GHC with Clang instead of GCC on Ubuntu, by configuring the build with
CC=/usr/bin/clang ./configure --with-gcc=/usr/bin/clang
but then, 'make' runs into

...anyone know why this happens when using Clang instead of GCC, or better yet, what I need to do in order to build GHC with Clang on Linux? _______________________________________________ ghc-devs mailing list ghc-devs@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/ghc-devs
