If you're building the CVS version of GHC, it usually helps to keep an eye on cvs-ghc@haskell.org where these kind of things are generally announced (in this case, I mentioned it in the commit message). The building guide tends to lag a little, but it will get updated. Cheers, Simon

Ah, thanks. I was having the same problem but was too shy to ask about it, figuring it must be my bad. This should probably be mentioend in the build documentation (hint, hint).

That's what I did. It made ghc ok, but then when it tries the 'make boot' in hslibs it falls over. The same happens if I change into $(BUILD)/hslibs and do 'make boot'...

Ok, I've worked out the problem: I just checked out the modules "ghc" and "hslibs". It seems that the standard library has just been moved into a new separate module "libraries". So my build was missing the standard library which was causing the problem.
