[For the benefit of those who don't regularily scan the ftp site...]
I've just cut a new release of Hugs for people to try out.
Features include:
o the new Hugs-GHC libraries [see previous announcement]
o the runST bug is finally fixed!!
o completely redone Win32 library
Features exclude :-)
o the Xlib library - waiting for some kind soul to translate it to GreenCard2
o the Fran library - Conal Elliott is back in control of Fran releases
The main reason for doing this release is to track down any last bugs
before announcing it more widely. I'd really appreciate it if people
with "weird machines" could grab a copy and report on things like:
o Do you get any warnings/errors while configuring/compiling/installing?
o What output do you get from
make check | grep -v "^--" -
(or just "make check" if that doesn't work)
o Does it seem to run ok?
I'm keeping a table of results at
ftp://haskell.org/pub/hugs/bugs.html
If things go smoothly, I hope we can finally release a non-BETA version of
Hugs 1.4 within a week.
