Second attempt: CPPFLAGS, LDFLAGS and mk/build.mk as above, and I also gave --with-gmp-{includes,libraries} to ./configure. This ends with the same error.

What happens if you only use the flags?

Do you mean CPPFLAGS and LDFLAGS, without putting anything in mk/build.mk or specifying --with-gmp-*? That fails here:

Sorry, I meant --with-gmp-{includes,libraries}.

This seems to be coming from an invocation of hsc2hs

I think this is something we fixed in the 6.8 darcs branch since releasing 6.8.2. Try building a recent 6.8 branch snapshot instead: http://www.haskell.org/ghc/dist/stable/dist/ Thanks Ian
