Hello, I need to double check: I'm talking here about new build system. I've invoked simple `gmake'. Also your builds is fine since editline seems to find readline header file which seems to satisfy it while this is not in my case. How have you configure to allow it to find readline?

How did you call gmake? editline is not needed for ghc. When building the libraries with the stage1 compiler I get:

I've no idea what your patch changes. Cheers Christian

Hello,
I attempt to test new build system on solaris/x86 platform and after applying patch from here: http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/2951 I've been able to boot and configure the tree. On the other hand build alone fails with:

Do you have any idea how to proceed or what exactly to install?
Thanks, Karel
