more changes to FPTOOLS_GHC_VERSION:
* fixed bug in too-many-args case
* reworked regexp for versions

sparc NCG is now enabled by default for non-opt compilation.

Reg needs to be imported non-abstractly for sparc.

Make the x86 NCG work again following recent sparc hackage.

Also, fix the x86 bits pertaining to the floats-promoted-to-doubles-
in-ccalls problem.  So this problem should no longer exist on x86
or sparc via NCG.

use Maybe.isJust instead of proprietary verison.

added Debian location to DocBook catalog test

Hash MachLabel, too

Replace RcFloating with RcFloat/RcDouble. I'm not exactly sure what
I'm doing here, so somebody else should better have a look.

* linux_TARGET_ARCH => i386_TARGET_ARCH
* move callClobberedRegs into safety in front of the register
  #define-orgy (what the ... is this cpp-ery for? %-]

fix typo

undo what appears to be an accidental commit

Fix up the sparc native code generator.  Mostly dull stuff.  Notable
changes:

* Cleaned up ccall mechanism for sparc somewhat.

* Rearranged assignment of sparc floating point registers (includes/MachRegs.h)
  so the NCG's register allocator can handle the double-single pairing
  issue without modification.  Split VirtualRegF into VirtualRegF and
  VirtualRegD, and split RcFloating into RcFloat and RcDouble.  Net effect
  is that there are now three register classes -- int, float and double,
  and we pretend that sparc has some float and some double real regs.

* (A fix for all platforms): propagate MachFloats through as StFloats,
  not StDoubles.  Amazingly, until now literal floats had been converted
  to and treated as doubles, including in ccalls.

Test completed, file deleted.

New autoconf tests for ghc version from Michael Weber, with minor
modifications by me.

workaround for strange gcc-ism: elide 'popl %edx' in the epilogue.

Test file; will shortly be removed.

Removed carriage returns (\r) from source files. Please don't check in such
things; they can cause problems on Cygwin (funnily enough). I'm looking into
how to avoid commiting carriage returns when working under Windows.

Third attempt by two people trying to get a simple fprintf right
again...   :-}

Install HsStd.h, stgio.h, stgerror.h, and fileObject.h, too. Hmmm,
this looks not particularly nice, perhaps we should merge those into a
single HsStd.h some day.

By definition (sec. 7.3 in the H98 report), userError raises an
IOError, so Prelude.catch should catch UserError exceptions, too.
Apart from not conforming to the report, without this patch GHC's
typechecker falls straight on its face.

Synched section on packages with new generalized package file format

Generalized the package file format a little bit: include directories,
include files, and options are now lists of Strings.

After the last fix in PprAbs.ppr_amode, we now need a cast from
StgClosure* to P_ in UPD_FRAME_UPDATEE. I'm not sure if this is the
nicest way to fix this, CgCon.cgReturnDataCon is another candidate. It
looks a little bit like PrimRep distinguishes not enough between the
different kind of pointers (there's no alternative for L_).

Fixed Show instance for Exception

Synch format string with actual args

This commit moves the instance environment out of the Class data
structure, where it was immutable, to part of the type-checker
environment.  This change is absolutely essential as part of
our move to GHCi, and I think it's also going to be necessary
for Andrei's work on generic functions.

As part of this change, we can remove

  a) types/InstEnv.*	(thereby also removing a hi-boot loop)
  b) a tc-fixpoint-loop in TcModule

Both of these are worthwhile simplifications.

Fix duplicate class assertion error msg

Rearrange exception stuff, as per my message on glasgow-haskell-users
recently.

The main change is the IOError type is now a synonym for Exception.
IO.ioError can therefore be used for throwing exceptions.  IO.catch
still catches only IO exceptions, for backwards compatibility.

The interface exported by Exception has changed somewhat:

	try       :: IO a -> IO (Either Exception a)
	tryJust   :: (Exception -> Maybe b) -> a    -> IO (Either b a)

	catch     :: IO a -> (Exception -> IO a) -> IO a
	catchJust :: (Exception -> Maybe b) -> IO a -> (b -> IO a) -> IO a

	ioErrors		:: Exception -> Maybe IOError
	arithExceptions 	:: Exception -> Maybe ArithException
	errorCalls		:: Exception -> Maybe String
	dynExceptions		:: Exception -> Maybe Dynamic
	assertions		:: Exception -> Maybe String
	asyncExceptions 	:: Exception -> Maybe AsyncException

raiseInThread is now called throwTo.

Where possible, the old functions have been left around, but marked
deprecated.

Remove the cast from CMacroExprs - it doesn't appear to be needed.
This fixes the recently introduced bug when compiling CCS_HDR macros
in profiling code.
