I'm confused. I thought we copied the configuration from the target to the host as part of the bootstrapping process, but now I can't see how this is supposed to happen for HsBaseConfig.h. It looks like following the instructions in the building guide will result in failure if you try to cross-compile between machines with different word sizes, but I know I've done this in the past :-/ Ian, any idea how this is supposed to work?
I guess we've just been lucky. "#define HTYPE_INT Int32" is probably true everywhere we've tried in recent years, and probably covers most of the potentially troublesome cases. Thanks Ian
