Hi Ian,
The following patch fixes things up again:
diff -C2 -r1.58 -r1.59
*** hugs.c 1997/09/25 15:03:01 1.58
--- hugs.c 1997/10/12 17:06:44 1.59

*** 1033,1037 ****
numberGcs = 0;
printing = TRUE;
! /* Not Haskell 1.4 compliant: noechoTerminal(); */
consGC = FALSE;
if (nonNull(type) && addType) {
--- 1033,1039 ----
numberGcs = 0;
printing = TRUE;
! #if 1 /* Arguably not Haskell 1.4 compliant */
! noechoTerminal();
! #endif
consGC = FALSE;
if (nonNull(type) && addType) {
Don't ask me to explain why the code was commented out in the first place
