Dear Simon, Simon and Sigbjorn,
I have finnaly managed to go through a complete "make"
session without any errors! (There is a caveat: see end of
mail).
Some comments: In the end, it worked out-of-the-box. But it
only did that after I had installed and reinstalled out of
the necessary tools and libraries.
The configure scripts complains about some of these, but not
all. In particular, the following things I had to find out
myself (well, you guys figured it out for me):
* I was using the wrong version of GHC, (mingw instead of
cygwin),
* I was using the wrong version of the readline libraries,
* I was using the wrong version of GHC when I tried to
compile GHCi.
Each of these problems could have easily been flagged by the
configure program, avoiding a lot of problems on my side
(and your side).
However, ghci crashes at start up time! I get the following
behavior:
>>>
[lap/bin] -: ./ghci
