Just a small note: Building GHC from CVS finally works, including the docs. Something really off-topic, but probably helpful for others: For internal reasons I had to switch to another Linux box and suddenly got the following message in /var/log/warn: Jan 20 00:01:09 marutea kernel:

A few minor things regarding the 4.06 docs: * db2html creates the html subdirs with mode 700, but it should better be 755. Is this a phenomenon of my local db2XY tools? If not, the makefiles should take care of that. * The user's guide talks about version 4.04, not 4.06. *
