I have been using GHC-6.3 since 2004-12-23 using a version built using "make ; make install" without any problems, and without copying gcc or anything else. Does this work because I already have MinGW in my path? Am I going to run into problems if I don't "copy by hand the gcc bits into the installed tree?" By the way, I got my Windows build instructions from: http://raintown.org/wiki/index.php/Building_The_Glasgow_Haskell_Compiler_from_source_on_Windows Also, here is another set that uses "make ; make install" http://dcooney.com/archive/2003/04/16/320.aspx _______________________________________________ Cvs-ghc mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/cvs-ghc
