But it's not so much what kind of machine you are on, as what kind of ghc you are using: a 64-bit ghc cannot link 32-bit libraries, and vice versa. But a 32-bit ghc and toolchain will work fine on a 64-bit system, aside from not linking 64-bit DLLs. -- brandon s allbery kf8nh sine nomine associates allber...@gmail.com ballb...@sinenomine.net unix, openafs, kerberos, infrastructure, xmonad http://sinenomine.net
