Thanks. That is very unfortunate: ./configure does not issue any complaint.
I upgraded from 9.2 because GHC won't compile with 9.2 any more. But now you are saying that nofib won't build with 9.6? So that leaves 9.4 only. Well I can install 9.4 and rebuild everything. But really, it would be good if configure complained if you are using a boot compiler that won't work. That's what configure is for!
