ghc-6.8.3 binary dist problem

When I try to ./configure, I get this error: aragon: .../i386-unknown-linux/ghc-6.8.3

./configure --prefix=/projects/ctl/franksen/usr checking build system type... i686-pc-linux-gnu checking host system type... i686-pc-linux-gnu checking target system type... i686-pc-linux-gnu Which we'll further canonicalise into: i386-unknown-linux checking for path to top of build tree... configure: error: cannot determine current directory

Looking into configure, I see that it calls 'utils/pwd/pwd forwardslash' which seems to be the culprit, since aragon: .../i386-unknown-linux/ghc-6.8.3 > utils/pwd/pwd forwardslash [1] 28489 floating point exception utils/pwd/pwd forwardslash Cheers Ben
