Hello, all. I successfully built GHC 6.8.1 on my FreeBSD 7.0_BETA amd64 machine. I was able to bootstrap it from the GHC 6.6.1 for FreeBSD 6/amd64 which was posted to this list a while ago (and was running in FreeBSD 6 compatibility mode), as well as happy 1.15 which I compiled with that same compiler.

Great!

I did have to make a minor modification; in the configure script, the machine type needed to be changed from amd64-*-freebsd* to x86_64-*-freebsd*

Thanks Brian; I'll make configure.ac accept either. Thanks Ian
