Hi!  We've just downloaded the 2.10 binaries and had a problem with the
Makefile. It starts with:

PACKAGE_SH_SCRIPTS =
PACKAGE_PRL_SCRIPTS = ghc stat2resid hstags mkdependHS
PACKAGE_LIB_PRL_SCRIPTS = hscpp
PACKAGE_BINS =

When we make in-place the test inside config-pkgs, i.e.       

   @if test "$(PACKAGE_SH_SCRIPTS)"; then \   etc.

falls over.

Why is PACKAGE_SH_SCRIPTS undefined in both Makefile.in and left undefined
by configure?  

Feeling brave, we deleted the whole of the conditional code starting at the 
above test and then tried again.  It all seems to work...  

...but I don't like to delete code that looks like it's there for a
reason!

Have we been stupid or is there REALLY no mention of this feature
anywhere in the documentation?!!

With thanks,
