RE: Newbie building GHC

| I have been trying to build GHC, but the ghc.exe that gets built for | ghc-inplace always exits with "Error 1". It *can* print its version | number and the help, but building anything fails. The build fails | making Adjustor.o from Adjustor.c. I have seen something like this myself. I can't honestly remember exactly what the cause was, but it was something deeply obscure to do with not having reconfigured enough. The safe thing to do is to check out an entirely new, virgin, tree; reconfigure from scratch (on win32 don't forget the --with-gcc= part; see the build notes); and then make. Time consuming, but faster than head scratching. Simon
