Roy Marantz:

Thank you for the build report.

For what it is worth, I run darcs on Solaris, but it isn't real  
Solaris -- it is Nexenta, a Solaris 10 kernel with a GNU C library  
and userland.  :-)

I started with the ghc binaries for solaris from http:// 
www.haskell.org/ghc/download_ghc_661.html .

I can't.  I get that too, although I've never run the tests until  
just now.

Darcs devs: would there be any interest in running a BuildBot for  
darcs?  BuildBot is an excellent and widely used tool that runs unit  
tests automatically (triggered by a darcs push, for example) on  
various platforms.

BuildBot is written and maintained by Brian Warner, who is also my  
programming partner on the http://allmydata.org project.

Here is an example of a running buildbot.  This one runs the  
allmydata.org unit tests as well as some performance tests and some  
"build me a .deb" tasks, whenever a new patch is pushed into the  
central darcs repository for allmydata.org:
