First, every test for including inttypes.h instead of stdint.h should include _AIX in the list of systems that use inttypes.h. (Look in mark.h, HsFFI.h).

Thanks, I'll add those tests to CVS.

I've got one other patch I'll send along yet once I've got everything built.

You have done a 'make clean' at some point, which has removed the .hc bootstrapping files. You'll need to unpack the tarfile again, redo any edits so far, re-configure and re-make.

Oops, yes, that was it and now I'm red-faced. Sorry. I got farther now, but: rm -f /home/jgoerzen/programs/nhc98-1.16/targets/powerpc-AIX-5.1.0.0/obj/prelude/DErrNo/*.o *.o rm -f rm -f /home/jgoerzen/programs/nhc98-1.16/script/nhc98 -cpp -c +CTS -lib -redefine -CTS +RTS -H32M -RTS -o /home/jgoerzen/programs/nhc98-1.16/targets/powerpc-AIX-5.1.0.0/obj/prelude/DErrNo/DErrNo.o DErrNo.hs /home/jgoerzen/programs/nhc98-1.16/script/nhc98[467]: 80554 Segmentation fault(coredump) /home/jgoerzen/programs/nhc98-1.16/script/nhc98[477]: 16590 Segmentation fault(coredump) Trying to get tag from unevaluated node in TABLESWITCH at 200c5e8d!

I'll see if I can figure out how. Thanks again. -- John
