I think these are difficult problems to talk about, because there are so many different versions of things flying about. But if I can sum up what I think has gone on here, I want to make sure we know what needs to happen next:
* Kazu has verified that my patches to happy/alex allow us to build HEAD using GHC 7.6 + GCC 4.8.
* There are separate patches needed for happy/alex to allow building of HEAD using GHC 7.6 + Clang (and as I see in the other thread, also a patch for
ghc.mk)
Kazu, can you put create pull requests for happy and alex with your required changes?
If those changes play nice, hopefully we can then ship new versions of happy and alex for mac users shortly.
