This patch fixes problems that occur when building on 10.9 regardless of whether GCC or clang (Xcode 5) are used. In other words, it's not related to Xcode 5 at all. Building GHC on 10.8 with Xcode 5 does not require this patch. I've already tested this to make sure. You can see how the patch is applied with the homebrew formula I maintain here: https://github.com/darinmorrison/homebrew- haskell/blob/master/Formula/ghc.rb -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/8139#comment:11 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
