Hi,
thanks for the report. These symbols are declared as undefined when
linking to break any backward references from the RTS to the prelude.
Hmm..I suspect the configure test for checking whether underscores are
prepended to symbol table entries is going awry. To get to the bottom
of this, could you report back the outcome of doing the following?
% cd <wherever you've got the fptools build tree>
% autoconf --version
% ./configure
Could you also send me the contents of config.log?
If you just want to get going with the build - changing the definition
of $uscore in the ghc driver script should be all that's needed.
Thanks,
