RE: FFI Bindings to Libraries using GMP

No, it's 6.8.1: http://www.haskell.org/ghc/dist/current/docs/users_guide/version-numbering.html Seems like something is wrong with this version number though: Snapshots beginning with 6.8.20070909 are release candidates for 6.8.1 In many version numbering schemes, 6.8.20070909 would be a higher version than 6.8.1. According to policy: Stable snapshot releases are named x.y.z.MMDD. where MMDD is the date of the sources from which the snapshot was built, and x.y.z+1 is the next release to be made on that branch. For example, 6.8.1.20040225 would be a snapshot of the 6.8 branch during the development of 6.8.2. *Main let version (x,y,z+1) date = concat [ show x, ., show y, ., show z, ., date] *Main version (6,8,1) 20070909 6.8.0.20070909 ;) j. ___ Glasgow-haskell-users mailing list Glasgow-haskell-users@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/glasgow-haskell-users
