Hi I'm trying to build for cygwin.

From a clean windows box I

Installed cygwin to c:/cygwin Added c:/cygwin/bin to path Installed MSys and MinGW in c:/msys and c:/mingw (did not add path) Installed ghc to c:/ghc/ghc-6.2.1 Untarred source to c:/ghc/ghc-6.2.1 (same dir) Copied perl from ghc dist to /cygwin/bin/perl Downloaded and build happy and alex (not that this is necessary but built just fine) Ran ./configure --with-ghc=c:/ghc/ghc-6.2.1/bin/ghc --with- gcc=c:/cygwin/bin/gcc make failed while trying to build ghc/compiler. The build rules give the argument -package unix but the binary ghc release from www.haskell.org is a mingw version and so doesn't have package unix. Of course inorder to build the unix library I need ghc/compiler/ghc-inplace and I'm now skuppered. Has anyone else ran into this problem. Am I making a mistake? Cheers Ben
