I've been trying to compile nhc 1.16 from source under cygwin (updated today) using gcc 3.3.1. I have no other Haskell compiler installed on the machine. Configuration goes fine, but there seems to be a problem with the asmlong.h file in the runtime/Integer directory, see the extract below. Looking at asmlong.h file, I wondered if the line breaks within strings are (now) legit. thanks David p.s. I am aware I can download an executable, but if there is an underlying problem here, it might bite other people later .... p.p.s. If someone knows the fix, could you please reply direct, as I am not on the mailing list.
