[GHC] #7569: Does not correctly detect float/double Haskell types when cross-compiling
#7569: Does not correctly detect float/double Haskell types when cross-compiling --------------------------------+------------------------------------------- Reporter: singpolyma | Owner: Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Component: libraries/base Version: 7.6.1 | Keywords: cross-compiling Os: Unknown/Multiple | Architecture: Unknown/Multiple Failure: Building GHC failed | Blockedby: Blocking: | Related: --------------------------------+------------------------------------------- As described on the mailing list, the way that the check for floating point types is implemented in `aclocal.m4` gives an error in cross- compiling mode and thus fails to detect that float/double are supported. The possible patch is attached here. -- Ticket URL: <http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/7569> GHC <http://www.haskell.org/ghc/> The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
