Comingling of c and Haskell code of incompatible licenses is way harder to
do by accident than Haskell and Haskell.
Every arms length subsystem volunteers have to maintain is more complexity
to juggle.
Solution : let someone get angry enough that they volunteer to fix it and
encourage them.
If it’s frustrating, help fix it.

I've been complaining about that for years. Every so often there's discussion of a non-GPLed alternative preprocessor, but the questions apparently become fairly hairy quickly, so the current mess is just accepted. :(
I find it strangely inconsistent that using cpphs is found to be problematic because of its GPL license, while using the equally GPL licensed gcc C preprocessor is not. Can anyone shed light on this? _______________________________________________ Haskell-Cafe mailing list To (un)subscribe, modify options or view archives go to: http://mail.haskell.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe Only members subscribed via the mailman list are allowed to post.
