Comment:
I have uploaded a new version of unix-compat (0.2.1.2) to Hackage which
does not include `HsUnix.h`.
Given the new information from byorgey though, there is still some issues.
The decision about whether `setSymbolicLinkOwnerAndGroup` is required is
made in `HsUnixCompat.h`:
{{{
#define NEED_setSymbolicLinkOwnerAndGroup !HAVE_LCHOWN
}}}
And in the `unix` package, the decision is made like so:
{{{
#if HAVE_LCHOWN
setSymbolicLinkOwnerAndGroup,
#endif
}}}
So definitely something strange going on, I wonder what `HAVE_LCHOWN` is
defined as (or not defined as)
