I found early on that trying to use gmake with haskell is a losing battle. Maybe you could change your approach to use cabal? That way you can specify the build directory using something like "runhaskell Setup --builddir dist-whatever build" _______________________________________________ Glasgow-haskell-users mailing list Glasgow-haskell-users@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/glasgow-haskell-users
