But it is only a problem for cross-compiling - yes? And no more of a problem than ghc already has? So, should I push my patch for building System.Posix.Types with nhc98 (i.e. without autoconf, with hsc2hs) or not? At the moment, the lack of System.Posix.Types is breaking the nightly builds of Cabal/nhc98.
