The CVS version of the libraries tree comes with all kinds of neat and dangerously unstable code I'd like to use, particularly the "arrows" subdirectory. Now I wonder: Is there some "build.mk" magic I could perform to tell GHC to build these libraries as part of my normal build? So that I get them (and the documentation) installed automatically when I rebuild GHC? [...]
No, there isn't, but modifying libraries/Makefile should be easy (see the SUBDIRS handling there). I'm not sure about the current status of the arrows package. Ross?

Looks like there is a definition path missing somewhere.
It looks like configure hasn't found a DocBook XSL directory on your machine. Could you provide us with a little bit more information, please (log of the configure run, config.log, platform, ...)? What's a little bit funny is that "make all" is trying to build documentation, this is normally not the case. What's in your build.mk? Cheers, S.
