Hello, I successfully downloaded and installed ghc-6.5.20060901 on Windows XP (SP2 etc.). However, when attempting to build fps-0.8, I received a large number of errors stemming from gcc being unable to find Stg.h or HsBase.h. As far as I could tell using -v, gcc is still being passed the old path to the include files (ghc-dir\include, perhaps) whereas said files were actually located in ghc-dir\lib\i386-unknown-mingw32\include. Moving the files from the new location to the old solved the compilation problem. Was this a problem in the distributed build, or did I do something wrong when I was installing it? Thanks. /g -- It is myself I have never met, whose face is pasted on the underside of my mind.

Note that you shouldn't have to build fps 0.8 with ghc now, it comes included in the base library :) -- Don

The correct place is ghc-dir\include, indeed.

I think it is a problem with the nightly build. Best regards, --Esa
