'timer_create' problem. (At least, the 'cabal' executable that I

GHC-6.8.2 had this problem when running on the cluster which reminded me
on the
problems with GHC-6.8 itself running on older Linux kernels.)
I just googled this and found this:
http://www.haskell.org/pipermail/glasgow-haskell-users/2008-March/014498.html
That was linked from this discussion:
http://www.nabble.com/ghc-6.8.2-and-timer_create-error-td16160635.html
The second link seems to indicate that it's not a problem of antiquity but
instead one
related to what configure finds when building GHC for that system. In other
words, it should
be possible to make a version of GHC locally that doesn't use timer_create and
then your
student should be good to go.
Thanks for the pointer. But it means building GHC myself, which I have no
experience with. :-(_______________________________________________
