 I'm getting these three errors (repeated a few times) while building
gtkhs-0.9.13 on ghc 6.8.3, and was hoping for any suggestions on where
to go from here:

tools/c2hs/base/general/Map.hs:16:7:
   Could not find module `Data.Map':
     it is a member of package containers-0.1.0.2, which is hidden
tools/c2hs/base/errors/Errors.hs:44:0:
   Failed to load interface for `Position':
     Use -v to see a list of the files searched for.
glib/System/Glib.hs:13:0:
   Failed to load interface for `System.Glib.UTFString':
     Use -v to see a list of the files searched for.


The first error is the real one; the others happen because the gtk2hs makefile doesn't properly abort when a sub-build fails. (This is probably a bash-ism: setting -e aborts the current iteration of a loop, not the entire script/fragment containing the loop. Supposedly POSIX mandates this braindamage. I'm dubious.)

I have no idea what's causing the first one, though; normally it means something is missing from a Cabal configuration file, but last I checked gtk2hs didn't use Cabal and I don't see an obvious candidate in our gtk2hs 0.9.13 source tree.
