Hi,

I've successfully compiled ghc-6.12.3 under x86 solaris.

However, for the testsuite I had to add '-lz' to the threaded1 entry of
config.way_flags in file testsuite/config/ghc:

         'threaded1'  : ['-lz', '-threaded', '-debug'],

Otherwise I got many link failures of the kind:

Compile failed (status 256) errors were:

*** unexpected failure for tcrun001(threaded1)

See:

  http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/3756

the conclusion was we need to add something to the configure script. If you could help us out that would be great.

Cheers,
        Simon



Cheers Christian

     The (Interactive) Glasgow Haskell Compiler -- version 6.12.3
    ==============================================================

The GHC Team is pleased to announce a new patchlevel release of GHC.
This release contains a number of bugfixes relative to 6.12.2, so we
recommend upgrading.

Release notes are here:

   
http://darcs.haskell.org/download/docs/6.12.3/html/users_guide/release-6-12-3.html

How to get it
~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The easy way is to go to the web page, which should be self-explanatory:

         http://darcs.haskell.org/download/download_ghc_6_12_3.html

We supply binary builds in the native package format for many
platforms, and the source distribution is available from the same
place.

Packages will appear as they are built - if the package for your
system isn't available yet, please try again later.


Background
~~~~~~~~~~

Haskell is a standard lazy functional programming language; the
current language version is Haskell 98, agreed in December 1998 and
revised December 2002.

GHC is a state-of-the-art programming suite for Haskell.  Included is
an optimising compiler generating good code for a variety of
platforms, together with an interactive system for convenient, quick
development.  The distribution includes space and time profiling
facilities, a large collection of libraries, and support for various
language extensions, including concurrency, exceptions, and foreign
language interfaces (C, whatever).  GHC is distributed under a
BSD-style open source license.

A wide variety of Haskell related resources (tutorials, libraries,
specifications, documentation, compilers, interpreters, references,
contact information, links to research groups) are available from the
Haskell home page (see below).


On-line GHC-related resources
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Relevant URLs on the World-Wide Web:

GHC home page              http://www.haskell.org/ghc/
GHC developers' home page  http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/
Haskell home page          http://www.haskell.org/


Supported Platforms
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The list of platforms we support, and the people responsible for them,
is here:

    http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/wiki/Contributors

Ports to other platforms are possible with varying degrees of
difficulty.  The Building Guide describes how to go about porting to a
new platform:

     http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/wiki/Building


Developers
~~~~~~~~~~

We welcome new contributors.  Instructions on accessing our source
code repository, and getting started with hacking on GHC, are
available from the GHC's developer's site run by Trac:

   http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/


Mailing lists
~~~~~~~~~~~~~

We run mailing lists for GHC users and bug reports; to subscribe, use
the web interfaces at

     http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/glasgow-haskell-users
     http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/glasgow-haskell-bugs

There are several other haskell and ghc-related mailing lists on
www.haskell.org; for the full list, see

     http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/

Some GHC developers hang out on #haskell on IRC, too:

reporting bugs can be found here:
