Yes, we currently have a problem building the HEAD with itself. Back
off to 6.4 or earlier to build with.
The problem is that the HEAD is now stricter about requiring that
modules are found in one place (only); previously a package module would
silently shadow a local module. (making local modules shadow package
modules isn't an option). The problem arises because we have some
modules in our compat library that are there because older versions of
GHC didn't have them, but newer versions of GHC complain because they're
there. I'm not sure of the best way to work around/fix this yet. It
might involve copying all the required modules into another location
before building, but that seems a bit of a sledgehammer.
Cheers,
Simon
