For backward compatibility reasons sh in Solaris 9 and earlier is not
POSIX compliant. Use /usr/xpg4/bin/sh or /bin/bash instead.

you could create a program called !:

Actually this is what the script used 'til someone pointed out to me
that sh has the ! syntax :-). I'll switch it back to using this style
with a note to say why.

Under Solaris: GHC 6.10.2 Release Candidate 1
GHC 6.10.2 will have a problem with cabal-install-0.6.2!
When I tried to install cabal-install-0.6.2 for ghc-6.10.1.20090314
I needed to change #!/bin/sh to #!/bin/bash in bootstrap.sh to avoid the
following errors:
-bash-3.00$ ./bootstrap.sh
Checking installed packages for ghc-6.10.1.20090314...
./bootstrap.sh: !: not found
parsec is already installed and the version is ok.
./bootstrap.sh: !: not found
network is already installed and the version is ok.
./bootstrap.sh: !: not found
Cabal is already installed and the version is ok.
./bootstrap.sh: !: not found
HTTP is already installed and the version is ok.
./bootstrap.sh: !: not found
zlib is already installed and the version is ok.
./bootstrap.sh: !: not found
./bootstrap.sh: !: not found
./bootstrap.sh: !: not found
Under Solaris sh is not bash!
Next, ghc-6.10.1.20090314 comes with package unix-2.4.0.0, but
cabal-install.cabal requests:
unix = 2.0 2.4
Changing to = 2.4 was not sufficient, so I changed it to = 2.5.
This will affect any OS!
Testsuite results are bad for ghc-6.10.1.20090314, see
http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/3106
Cheers Christian
