Dear Austin, Richard,
Thank you for your help!
I updated my example and as far as I can see everything is working as
expected now with the compiler build from the git repository.
Best,
Maarten

Template Haskell is certainly included in the 7.6.3 source

doesn't seem to be picked up by your compilation.
FWIW, if you want a change merged upstream, it's encouraged you use
GHC from git and make the change there (because there have been a lot
of changes in HEAD since then). If I remember correctly, the Pred
change in template-haskell didn't even touch the compiler. The changes
are here:
https://github.com/ghc/packages-template-haskell/commit/9b128b3c0317283edb0759479e2e26d351b86e58
https://github.com/ghc/packages-template-haskell/commit/a02ef9d827c4473e5e4efc84d7a8a987f51522aa
https://github.com/ghc/packages-template-haskell/commit/57b662c3efd8579595c8642fce2d4cd60ba4ec0b
If you *really* don't want to update your example, you *might* get
away with reverting these commits in the template-haskell repository
(located under libraries/template-haskell after using ./sync-all), and
then build. But it's probably better if you can adapt your example to
match HEAD, if possible.

Dear Richard,
I tried rebuilding a fresh source distribution which has the same problem. I
simply don't think template-haskell is included in the source distribution.
I also tried building ghc from the git repository. This time I had (a little
bit) more success: ghc builds and has template-haskell wired-in. However, as
I feared, some development in template-haskell's git repository is going on
that is not compatible with the example I try to compile (ClassP is
depricated).

Ah -- I understand better now. I'm afraid I've never worked with the
source distribution, so I don't have further advice about that. It seems
odd, though, that changing rts code would cause problems with wired-in
packages. Have you tried just building without any edits and then putting
your edits in?

Dear Richard, GHC-devs,
Thank you for your reply.
I am using the 7.6.3 source distribution. According to
https://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/wiki/Building/QuickStart "perl boot" is not
necessary for source distributions. I did give it a try however (repeating
step 3 and 4 afterwards), but it did not solve my problem. There is no
sync-all script in the source distribution.
I went with a source distribution rather than checking out from the git
repository because it was recommended on the "Getting the GHC Sources"-page
and because I rather make my changes to an otherwise stable tree. Do you
think this is a bad idea?
Cheers,
Maarten Faddegon

Did you `./sync-all get`? Did you `perl boot`? You may want to check out
the "Building GHC" section of https://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/wiki/Building
to make sure you've followed all the steps.
I hope this helps,
Richard

Dear GHC-devs,
I want to experiment with the RTS of GHC but the compiler I built has
problems finding some wired-in packages. How can I include these?
This is what I did:
* Download ghc-7.6.3 sources.
* Make some changes in rts/
* ./configure && make
* inplace/bin/ghc-stage2 --make my_example.lhs -v
And this is the output produced by the last step:
...
wired-in package ghc-prim mapped to ghc-prim-0.3.0.0-inplace
wired-in package integer-gmp mapped to integer-gmp-0.5.0.0-inplace
wired-in package base mapped to base-4.6.0.1-inplace
wired-in package rts mapped to builtin_rts
wired-in package template-haskell not found.
wired-in package dph-seq not found.
wired-in package dph-par not found.
...
my_example.lhs:88:8:
Could not find module `Language.Haskell.TH'
Locations searched:

Thanks,
