I'm trying to build version 4.01 on a Linux pentium, using freshly
installed binary of 4.01, and I get this error message when running
a "gmake all"
------------------------------------------------------------------------
==fptools== gmake all --no-print-directory -r;
in /home/kultarr/year4/mattl/ghc-4.01/ghc/lib/std

rm -f PrelBase.o ; if [ ! -d PrelBase ]; then mkdir PrelBase; else find

PrelBase.lhs:18: Could not find valid interface file `PrelErr'
PrelBase.lhs:18: Module `PrelErr' does not export `error'
PrelBase.lhs:19: Could not find valid interface file `PrelGHC'
It's complaining about not finding an interface file, but
I've got both PrelErr.hi-boot and I even compiled PrelErr.lhs to
get the PrelErr.hi file.

Does this mean that the interface files are *invalid* ?
I was able to compile 4.00 with a little bit of fiddling around,
but this one has got me stumped
