Thank you Christian It seems that an old gcc was the problem. I downloaded gcc 3.4.6 from sunfreeware and it works ok.
Also, their precompiled gcc's at sunfreeware are configured to use sun linker. It caused no problems at hello world Haskell program. I yet have to check how it will behave with a quite big project. There were serious problems with performance in the past, as we know. Btw, the link you gave me is not on haskell.org/ghc. For 6.8.3 only solaris-x86 is downloadable. That's why I grabbed 6.8.2 in the first place. Thanks for your ports! 2008/8/15 Christian Maeder <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > Hi Daniil > > I have a binary dist here: > http://www.dfki.de/sks/hets/solaris/ghcs/ghc-6.8.3-sparc-sun-solaris2.tar.bz2 > > that runs and was built with gcc-4.0.3 on Solaris 8 sparc.
