A few comments to the source bundles

1. There are binary (.p_o and .p_hi) files present in libraries/HGL/Graphics/HGL/X11 and below.
2. On my PPC Mac OS X 10.4, configure reports
checking for DocBook XSL stylesheet directory... no configure: WARNING: cannot find DocBook XSL stylesheets, you will not be able to build the documentation
Some time ago, I installed docbook-xsl from mac/darwinports and this complaint disappeared from the HEAD, but not from the 6.6 branch. The relevant HEAD change is this:
diff ghc-6.6-for-buildbot-20070221_1000/ghc/configure.ac ghc-HEAD-for-669-20070324_1621/ghc/configure.ac ... 931c976 < FP_DIR_DOCBOOK_XSL([/usr/share/xml/docbook/stylesheet/nwalsh/ current /usr/share/xml/docbook/stylesheet/nwalsh /usr/share/sgml/ docbook/docbook-xsl-stylesheets* /usr/share/sgml/docbook/xsl -stylesheets* /opt/kde?/share/apps/ksgmltools2/docbook/xsl /usr/ share/docbook-xsl /usr/share/sgml/docbkxsl /usr/local/share/xsl/ docbook /sw/share/xml/xsl/docbook-xsl]) ---

I suppose it would be useful for this change to be merged to 6.6.1.
This is the relevant darcs patch: Mon Sep 18 16:28:31 PDT 2006 bjorn@bringert.net * Added Darwinports path to DocBook XSL stylesheets to configure. M ./configure.ac -1 +1 /Björn
