We're groping around in the dark here
Sorry, yes we are. It is a bit cheeky of me to always punt and say
I'll bet it is a GHC problem when I haven't even seen the bug myself
on a machine whose configuration I know. Sorry about that.
No problem :)
In fact, it turns out that you've

Thanks Simon,
Explanation of why GreenCard generates that code attached.
Briefly, GreenCard has always marshalled Word8 as a Word32 (and so has
Hugs). I'm wondering if a recent change in GHC or in how Win32 is
compiled might have changed the way that Word32 is being
That is a shame. I tried both suggestions (specifying

I also tried using 5.03, and got the following warnings:

It looks like there are some prototypes missing:

Well of course that happens with 5.02.2 - you should
upgrade to 5.03 right away.

I'm afraid not :-) But there *is* a bug in the native code generator in
5.02.2, namly in the FFI support for passing floating point arguments to

When I compile a program using GHC 5.02.2 on Windows 200 using HGL,
I don't have GHC installed on my Windows partition (nor space for it,
I suspect) so I'll ask some questions and hope they suggest an answer.
Does it work ok using Hugs and HGL?
Sigbjorn Finne did a great job of packaging
