Aha. It seems that the libraries tree is not independent of the 'ghc' tree; this is because the 'base/GHC/' subtree is absolutely GHC specific. The quickest workaround is to check out ghc/ as well as libraries/, and say 'make boot' in the ghc tree. Don't forget to do the 'configure' stuff. Also, compiling the libraries tree probably assumes that you want to use the ghc in the same tree. You may need to add 'HC=ghc' to your 'make' calls.

Simon, Thanks. I checked out as follows: [dom@tility fptools]$ cvs -d :pserver:anoncvs@glass.cse.ogi.edu:/cvs checkout -r ghc-5-04-2 ghc hslibs libraries But got the following.
