Hi Mike, Sigbjorn, Simon, Thanks so much for the pointers. Sigbjorn's suggestion to check out the patch was what finally fixed my problem. BTW, ghci still does work for me.
I get this lovely message: F:\stuff>ghci -package win32 hello.lhs C:\ghc-5.02\bin\ghc.exe: file `P?B' does not exist The ? is acutally a spade symbol in my command window. Anyway, I hope that stops the stupid complaints from my direction for a while. And now I know what and where I should be looking for the bug list. SourceForge has just enough of a bug list to fool me into thinking that's where I should be looking.
