RE: current CVS version doesn't compile

Simon Marlow writes:
What version of GHC are you compiling with?
The Glorious Glasgow Haskell Compilation System, version 6.1
I built this version from CVS as well, maybe two or three days before the 6.0 version was released.
We only support compiling the CVS sources with: a. A released compiler (i.e. one ending in an even number), or b. itself. So, building with a random 6.1 isn't supported, hence the build error. You should start from 6.0. Cheers, Simon

Oh, I didn't know that. :-) I re-compiled with GHC 5.04.2 as the bootstrapping compiler and now everything works fine. Thanks for your help. Peter
