You're using gcc-3.3 and need to either compile HEAD from cvs or force the build to use gcc-3.1. Try running configure as
./configure --with-gcc=gcc3 --with-ghc='ghc -pgmP "gcc3 -E -traditional"'
Well, it's been cranking along now for four or five hours, and is still compiling away, so that seems to be working.
Yes, it does take a long time---about 5 hours on my powerbook G4 800 MHz.
Regarding the second problem, whose dlcompat library are you using?
[/Users/kennis/] cd /Library/Receipts/dlcompat-10505X.pkg/Contents/Resources/ [...505X.pkg/Contents/Resources] cat dlcompat-10505X.info Title dlcompat Version 20010505 ...
What would I need to do if I got a more recent version (say 2003-06-29 from opendarwin.org)?
The problem with dlcompat is probably not the version, but that there are two different conventions regarding stripping leading underscores. GHC uses the 'fink' style convention, not the opendarwin convention. This will just drive you nuts. The best thing to do is to update ghc/rts/Linker.c. Look at the version in the cvs, and look where dlsym is called. Wolfgang has modified it in HEAD to use the native OS X dynamic symbol lookup procedure. Change just those few lines, otherwise you'll have to do more extensive upgrading to get the build to work again. Before you go to all this trouble, you might want to rebuild dlcompat with debugging turned on. If the symbol dlcompat says it is trying to find differs by an underscore from the one that GHCi complains about, you know the problem is there. Greg
Thanks for your help,
