I'm trying to compile HaskellDirect 0.15 (from ftp.dcs.gla.ac.uk)
using GHC 4.04, patchlevel 1 (binary dist. sparc-sun-solaris2).
Make stopped first on seing `forall ...' and I resolved this by adding
-fglasgow-exts in config.mk. Then GHC said
Utils.lhs:22: parse error on input `(#'
but previously it appearently got past that line (conflict with
unboxing syntax?).
I don't know how to proceed from here ...
BTW, I also had problems with `fromInt' not being in scope: solved by
replacing `fromInt' with `fromIntegral' (I coundn't make Sigbjorn
Finne's `import Int' trick work...)
GHC itself works great, except for one minor problem: "hstags"
complains that it cannot find "hsp" (there is no such file in the
binary dist. archive).

P.S. I know it's a faux pas to post to a mailing list without being
on it, but I _am_ reading the list from the web.
