Hello,
I'm trying to build GHC HEAD but get the following error:

The bug is in the GC_GENERIC macro on line 99:
Capability_interrupt(MyCapability()) != 0 :: CInt
However, I can't spot the problem.
I had the same recently, it's probably because GHCConstants.h and DerivedConstants.h have been moved but you still have them in include/ from a previous build. Deleting them should fix it.
