#8148: ./configure IGNORES --with-gcc=gcc-4.8, can't build head on os x 10.8 with xcode 5 installed ---------------------------------+---------------------------------- Reporter: carter | Owner: Type: bug | Status: new Priority: highest | Milestone: 7.8.1 Component: Compiler | Version: 7.7 Resolution: | Keywords: Operating System: MacOS X | Architecture: x86_64 (amd64) Type of failure: None/Unknown | Difficulty: Unknown Test Case: | Blocked By: Blocking: | Related Tickets: ---------------------------------+---------------------------------- Comment (by carter): ok, i managed to build stage2 successfully with apple clang from apple dev tools xcode 5 preview, the newest version made available as of august 21st. (ie the version released yesterday). I used {{{ CC=pathtoclang ; ./configure --with-gcc=pathtoclang }}} (note: i should have treally tried it without the CC=pathtoclang, but i've not had the time ) I'm running the test suite now. I'm seeing some funny errors, I'll attache the reports in a little while once the test suite ends. (its taking a while to run it all!) -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/8148#comment:13 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
