Sorry to revive a dead horse, but there's still a bit of a problem
with building ghc on os x because of missing files that need to be
created by happy. I downloaded the current stable sources yesterday
(ghc-6.8.0.20071015-src.tar.bz2 and ghc-6.8.0.20071015-src-
extralibs.tar.bz2) and tried building them on a powerbook G4 running
OS X 10.4.10 with ghc 6.1.1 and the latest apple developer tools
installed. If I build just the basic package, that works fine. But
when I unpacked the basic package into a new directory and then
unpacked the extralibs on top of it, the resulting build failed with
the following at the end of the transcript:
Reading package info from "dist/inplace-pkg-config" ... done.
Saving old package config file... done.
Writing new package config file... done.

This isn't a huge deal since at least the core package builds, but it
would be nice to fix it if possible before 6.8.x is released. Thanks.
