I tried using that gtk2hs tarball. make eventually errored out as:

Any suggestions?
I've seen this occasionally. If you check gtk2hs-confg.h near the bottom of the file you'll likely find something like #def _GLIB_MAJOR_VERSION () rather than #def _GLIB_MAJOR_VERSION (2) It is ./configure that generates the gtk2hs-confg.h from gtk2hs-confg.h.in based on tests in configure.ac. I've never been able to reproduce it and when others have helped me investigate we did not find a solution or indeed a cause. If you'd like to do some digging it'd be much appreciated. I'm cc'ing the gtk2hs-users list just in case someone else has already diagnosed this. Duncan
