I attempted to get Mark Jones Hugs 1.3 release to run on a Macintosh
at home under MPW (a somewhat Unix-like environment for the Mac),
and had similar problems. In my case, I produced various versions of
the system which died on syntax errors in various places inside
Prelude.hs.  Since nearly identical code ran fine on a Sun at work, I
decided that the problem was not actually in Prelude.hs (:-)), but
perhaps something to do with my port. Anyway, I have yet to get
it to work and am waiting with interest for the new combined
Yale/Nottingham version of Hugs that is supposed to run on all sorts
of platforms.
