I've no idea whose fault it is.   I think there are various 
complications about whether or not one should use the 
system ld/ar utilities with gcc which _may_ be to blame,
but i think I gave up on investigating this. 

In any case ghc4.08 is a pretty good release which has
everything I need and does indeed seem to be comparatively free
of bugs, so there's little temptation to upgrade.  It's also good 
that other people can compile UniForM without going through the
hassle of getting a CVS release of GHC compiled.
