I tried your above suggestion, but it fails at the same spot. It looks as if Hat.hs is not compiled (perhaps an absent make dependency?), Hat.hs is present in the src tree.

Well, the relevant Makefile (in src/hat/lib) contains the following dependency line:

$(OBJDIR)/TPreludeBuiltinTypes.o: $(OBJDIR)/Hat.o

and it is clear that, on Jaguar, the make program is trying to build TPreludeBuiltinTypes.o before Hat.o. This suggests a bug in your version of make.

Hmn, I found an already made 'hat.o'. The MacOSX HFS+ file system is (sometimes) case insignificant. Make (which is gnumake) somehow is insensitive to case is my guess (which is not contradicted, but confirmed by the output of make -d). I will try finding some info on the apple developer site about this, or submit a bugreport. This problem pops up sometimes.

Try using the make -d option for lots of debugging information about what files and timestamps are being compared. You might also try the -r option to eliminate built-in default rules.

The output tells it is pruning Hat.o (I guess as a prerequite): Finished prerequisites of target file `TPreludeBuiltinTypes.hs'. No need to remake target `TPreludeBuiltinTypes.hs'. Pruning file `/Volumes/Apps/Install/hat-2.00/targets/powerpc-Darwin-6.1/obj/hatlib/nhc98/Hat.o'.
