Hi The haddock placed in bin/ also seems to want to find bin/inplace-datadir/package.conf, which isn't in the distribution tarball as well. I guess haddock either needs building again, or not distributing.

The compilation succeeded after the hacks detailed in the previous message. There are now two issues: * runhaskell isn't in ghc/bin - but runghc is. I guess something forgot to get copied or created. This issue is very minor to me, but will be of great significance if it was missing in a release. * The ghc API package hasn't been installed. "ghc-pkg list" gives: C:\Neil\haddock>ghc-pkg list C:/ghc/ghc-6.9.20080905\package.conf: Cabal-1.5.4, Win32-2.1, array-0.1, base-3.0.3.0, base-4.0, bytestring-0.9, containers-0.1, directory-1.0, filepath-1.1, ghc-prim-0.1, {haddock-2.2.2}, haskell98-1.0.1, hpc-0.5, integer-0.1, old-locale-1.0, old-time-1.0, packedstring-0.1, pretty-1.0, process-1.0.1, random-1.0, rts-1.0, syb-0.1, template-haskell-2.2 My aim of building GHC was to run haddock (and eventually hoogle), so not having the ghc library available is a problem. Does something have to be configured to get the library? Is it hiding somewhere, just not exposed? How did haddock-2.2.2 get installed and compiled without a ghc library?

I therefore added: #define __MINGW_NOTHROW To the mingw\include\float.h header - which is clearly not a good idea to do in general, but may hack it enough until a build expert can give me the right fix.

That didn't work. So I then copied crtbegin.o and crtend.o into c:\mingw\lib. That seemed to be enough to get past hpc, but again is just a short-term hack. My build is still going, and I'll report back once it either fails or succeeds. However, a general fix does need to be developed for the two issues above. Adding cc1 to the path can probably go in as an instruction for setting up the build environment. It would be incredibly useful if someone wrote a windows-build.sh command that automated as many steps as possible in the list Claus made, and checked for all the others - i.e. checking darcs is on the path, checking appropriate versions where possible, checking mingw gcc is first etc. If no one else does, I probably will when I install Windows on my home machine.
