Is this really needed? To build all tools and GHC, one only needs a working bootstrapping GHC, then Happy => Alex => Haddock => GHC can be built in this order. Or am I missing something? > This also reminds me: a week or so ago when I was visiting Chalmers, we > had a hacking session where we added new ByteString '%wrapper's to alex. > I'll try to tidy up the patches and send them in.

But performance is always good... ;-) Cheers, S. _______________________________________________ Cvs-ghc mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/cvs-ghc
