I’m trying to upgrade the MacPorts ghc install to the latest 8.8.2. The build fails with:
error: use of undeclared identifier 'TAG_MASK' :info:build return (StgWord)p & TAG_MASK;
This is an error observed with previous ghc versions and on other systems, so I do not believe it is macOS-specific. Also, the MacPorts build process simply follows the ghc Build & Install instructions: https://github.com/ghc/ghc/blob/master/README.md#building--installing Is there a simple fix by adding an extra flag somewhere? Logs:
