I have just gone through a similar exercise on both my Macs (desktop G5, 10.4.7, iBook G4, 10.3.9). Each also has different versions of gcc (4.0.1 and 3.3). I don't know whether there were specific issues with ghc-6.4.2 on the Mac, but certainly the current darcs version (or ghc-6.6 branch) compiled without significant problems for me, on both machines. (One simple mistake was to fail to 'make distclean' before rebuilding.) > | -----Original Message----- > | From: Mathew Mills [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > | > | Now, if someone has some hints about how to compile GHC on a > | PowerBook G4 in less than 36 hours, I am all ears :) On my iBook G4 it took only 2.5 hours. I followed the guide in the HACKING file to ensure that it was as fast as possible, by avoiding to build profiling libs etc. Regards, Malcolm _______________________________________________ Cvs-ghc mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/cvs-ghc
