Hi, Alan -
./configure fails with "checking for path to top of build tree... configure: error: cannot determine current directory".
Yeah, I got the exact same error yesterday when trying to install a ghc-6.8.3 binary dist on some older machine. Well, since I had 6.8.2 working there, I just used it to compile 6.8.3 from sources, which worked without any problems. I guess the 6.8.3 binary does not work because it expects a newer version of libc or whatever. I can provide the binaries I built if you need them. Best regards, J.W.
