With NetBSD 1.3.2 and gmp-2.0.2, `./configure && gmake && gmake check'
works fine. Since this is not the case in the ghc-4.08.2 source dist,
I assume that it must be a ghc problem. Note that the targets differ
slightly: it's `i386-unknown-netbsd1.3.2' in the originial and
`i386-unknown-netbsd' in the rts. As I mentioned earlier going to
ghc/rts/gmp and reconfiguring with `--target=unknown' does the trick.
Coming to NetBSD 1.5 again (my next target platform), I did not manage
to compile gmp-2.0.2 standalone but it works fine in the ghc distrib
if target is set to NONE.
Maybe gmp-2.0.2 is simply to old for NetBSD 1.5. Should I try a copy
from anoncvs? Whichever you tell me...
