Stg.h must be included before HsBase.h, because the latter contains function definitions causing older versions of gcc (3.3.5 in my case) to bail out with "error: global register variable follows a function definition" on Regs.h, which is included by Stg.h.
hunk ./cbits/PrelIOUtils.c 8 -#include "HsBase.h" hunk ./cbits/PrelIOUtils.c 9 +#include "HsBase.h"
This breaks the build for me:
I haven't looked at why yet.
It turned out that something in Stg.h, perhaps _ISOC99_SOURCE, meant S_ISSOCK wasn't being defined. I defined _BSD_SOURCE too, and now it's happy, so I've applied your patch (well, actually a new patch that does the same thing, because yours now conflicts with more recent changes). Thanks Ian
