Re: GHC 6.2.2 Compile problem on Mac OS X 10.4

Hi,

I am trying to make an unregisterised build. As my host machine, i use a Mac running Mac OS X 10.4. When building ghc 6.2.2 on the host machine (also running GHC 6.2.2), i get the error attached below when doing 'make all' in ghc/. Does anyone have an idea how to solve this ?

thanks, Remko

It looks like you have -fasm in your mk/build.mk. In 6.2.2, the native code generator has a problem that can cause an error like the one you encountered, so try removing the -fasm or adding -fvia-C. Cheers, Wolfgang
