I am getting the compilation error below when building GHC 7.0.4 on RHEL5
(x86_64) – I configured make to point to ncurses and libgmp. I will appreciated
pointers on how to work around the issue below. I don’t have root privileges.
My apologies if this has already been discussed in this forum. I searched for
the issue but could find only the GHC bug ticket below.
GHC bug ticket: http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/4374 - it doesn’t
have description on how to work around the bug.
