      ghc.exe:
c:\fptools\ghc\libraries\base\dist\build/HSbase-2.1.o: unknown symbol `_free' Loading package base ... linking ... ghc.exe: unable to load package `base'

that looks like the kind of problem that might go away by recompiling from
scratch - is it a known symptom?

This seems to be a new problem, our local builds are suffering from it too. I don't know when it was introduced. Adding "free" to the appropriate list in rts/Linker.c fixes it, but I want to understand why it's suddenly happening now before committing a patch.

Cheers,
        Simon
