Re: BeOS port
Hi, is it possible to use a simpler build system for GHC? :) Could someone please have a look at the build logs? http://zeus.mpg.goe.net/~tuvok/logs Note that I got the same errors when building on Linux! I also ported some .c files. You can find the source here: http://zeus.mpg.goe.net/~tuvok/ghc-6.2.1-beos-src.zip When I manually went into the ghc folder and ran make the .c files were compiled successfully. Then, I had problems with the mangler, but that was a bug in Perl, I think. I commented out: die "Prologue junk?: $p\n" if $p =~ /^\s+[^\s\.]/; and it worked fine. That is must be a bug in Perl because running this check in some other script does not fail. The next error was that my shell did not understand the script for "Ways". I just commented it out and it began looping and always saying that it tries to compile ways, then it restarts the whole makefile and begins with gmp and so on...never ending. Could somebody please install a freeware version of BeOS on his computer and try to fix what is broken? I think fixing the build scripts is beyond my capabilities. Thank you very much.

Something like: Make: could not create target Control/Arrow.o ... Stop. I do not have the correct message. How are the .hs files generated and why are they not generated in BeOS and Linux? Now, compiling in the ghc folder starts correctly and I get errors about missing itimer (can I safely disable that or should I add an emulator for it?) and mmap. Will the libraries be compiled after that? I saw comments about BeOS in the code. Did someone try to port it already? Thank you.

How are these files generated and why are they not generated in BeOS? Please forget this. Those files exist on both systems, but unfortunately they are not built. Someone told me on #haskell that he had the same problems when building on a threaded system (which BeOS is). Is that a general GHC problem?

BeOS port
Hi, is there someone doing a BeOS port of GHC? If not, I would like to try it (if not too time-consuming). What problems did you run into when porting GHC to FreeBSD or any other POSIX platform? Why do you not offer .hc packages of different builds (FreeBSD and/or Linux)? I could use them as a very good starting point. Or could anyone please create a zip with those files generated from such a build? Thank you very much.
