At the interface to the outside world (i.e. the configure flags) they have the normal semantics. We then append "/ghc-$(ProjectVersion)" to the internal build system variables. This seems reasonable to me - I don't think it would be better to put the "/ghc-$(ProjectVersion)" in manually everywhere we use it, if that's what you're suggesting? > I think I'll go for b) if nobody yells. I can't think about your proposals properly right now, but I do have a patch that will hopefully finally get bindists working correctly on both Windows and Linux, that I suspect would conflict with anything in this area. I expect to push on Sunday or Monday, so if you could hold off a couple of days then that would make my life easier.
