I'll look into it at work tomorrow. The problem I had before was that it worked in ghc, but not ghci. If there's no bug report I'll file one.

I wouldn't say it was a bug - the function really doesn't exist, and the library really does refer to it (AIUI). The reason that ghc behaves differently from ghci is that you don't have to link all the symbols from a .a library. The same problem will occur in ghc if the package is compiled to a shared library or DLL. Cheers, Simon

Are you sure the problem you had isn't just that the C erfc function is not available on Windows?

I looked for it, and I can't find any documentation on MSDN, outside of Excel functions.

I have a BSD-licensed C implementation of the function, so we can get that package working on all platforms if desired. Lennart?
