The section in the building guide was becoming out of date, a wiki
page is much more likely to be kept fresh.

Most of the other users of the fptools build system have migrated to
Cabal, and with the move to darcs we can now flatten the source tree
without losing history, so here goes.

The main change is that the ghc/ subdir is gone, and most of what it
contained is now at the top level.  The build system now makes no
pretense at being multi-project, it is just the GHC build system.

No doubt this will break many things, and there will be a period of
instability while we fix the dependencies.  A straightforward build
should work, but I haven't yet fixed binary/source distributions.
Changes to the Building Guide will follow, too.

mention that GNU make 3.80 is required.

remove one mention of hslibs

Move the building guide to GHC where it belongs. This is more consistent and
currently even necessary, otherwise *every* fptools project would need the ghc
subtree.

- include the contents of ghc/HACKING verbatim, as a "quick start"
  guide

- change the title to "Building and devleloping GHC", and make it a
  bit more GHC-centric.

merge rev. 1.13.2.12 from ghc-6-4-branch

note about watching for/preventing overwrites of critical files in the
bootstrap process.

Small fixes to the Win32 build log

change glass.cse.ogi.edu to cvs.haskell.org

Update notes on Perl

DocBook validation police

Stuff about building on windows, mainly from Claus

Fix porting instructions

And yesterday's "I messed up DocBook XML, too!" award goes to...

   *drum roll*

   ... Simon Peyton-Jones!

Congratulations! :-)

Update comments on hslibs to make it clear that that they are (a) deprecated,
and (b) not required for building GHC.

	Merge to STABLE

Remove -fasm from porting instructions

Fix XML (sorry, Sven)

wibble

update list of files to be touched during bootstrapping

Add note about GLUT from Claus (actually I have very little idea if
this is correct or not - Sven, if you have a chance to take a look
that would be great.)

some more wibbles in cross-compiling

Add some text about platforms I forgot to commit before, and a couple
of wibbles to the porting section.

Be clearer about HC files: you need a set generated on the same
platform, not just similar hardware.

Fixed a typo and a cut-n-pasto
