Two more Solaris fixes:
- ln -s -f doesn't really work (but doesn't matter)
- 'echo -n' neither necessary nor portable
(please merge)

No (un)setenv until SUSv3 (e.g. Solaris 2.9). (fallback untested)

The HEAD is version 6.1 now.

For STANDALONE_PACKAGE: Let the package configuration file refer to
$(libdir) as ${pkglibdir}.  Note we can't use ${libdir} because
ghc-pkg already redefines it to point to GHC's libdir (bug or
feature?).

Make hackery to give $(GhcCanonVersion) the right value even when we
have a single-digit $(GhcMinVersion).

Remove ancient vestiges of StgHugs: the COMPILER #define.

First hack at supporting standalone packages.

What this means is that a non-GHC fptools project which sets
$(PACKAGE) in a Makefile should do something reasonable.  It works by
testing whether $(ProjectNameShort) == "ghc", and if it isn't, then:

 - it turns off all the machinery that deals with installing the
   package for use with the in-place compiler and a (future)
   installation of GHC.

 - instead, it enables a rule that installs the package using
   the installed $(GHC_PKG).  The configure script still needs
   updating to detect this, so 'make install' won't work yet.

 - $(GHC) is used instead of $(GHC_INPLACE) for compiling Haskell
   code.

Apart from the detection of ghc-pkg in configure, this should be all
that's needed to get source distributions and 'make install' going.

Comment only

Fix obscure bug in GHCi: when generating code for tag2enum#, we were
wrongly using the source name for the DataCons rather than the worker
name, which lead to spurious link errors.

This fixes galois_raytrace(ghci).

Make it work with newer versions of flex, which produce an extern
declaration for yywrap() unless YY_SKIP_YYWRAP is defined.

Rename and reorder the internals for unique ids etc. Also fixed a couple
of THSyntax names.

The Great Renaming. I hope I've kept everything in sync - and all the tests
pass. Now datatypes follow the

data Foo = <a kind of Foo>Foo
         | <another kind of Foo>Foo

convention and the smart constructors can be uniformly created by
lowercasing the first letter of the constructor.

Solaris2 needs _POSIX_PTHREAD_SEMANTICS for the getpw*_r() prototypes.
Make libraries/unix/Makefile use a new variable unix_SRC_HSC2HS_OPTS
which we configure in mk/config.mk.

Add a microscopic amount of documentation for functional dependencies; who would like to volunteer to write more?

The 6.0 release notes.

Call strerror() instead of sys_errlist[errno] (deprecated & smells bad)
(Broke Solaris-build here)

Restore the correct partitioning of command-line arguments into
objects and compilation-manager inputs for --make mode, and restore a
comment explaining the behaviour.

Rev. 1.120 made some subtle changes to the semantics, in particular in
cases where a file given on the command line is neither a source nor
an object file.

I believe the behaviour for one-shot mode has not changed.  The
behaviour for GHCi mode is now the same as --make mode (previous to
rev. 1.120 it was subtly broken in this respect).

revert rev. 1.16; looks like this was an experiment that got
accidentally committed.

Put the call to saveDynFlags back in one place.

Improved greencard-related definitions

Added support for newtypes to TH and altered a test for them.

When --make is used we need to save the initial dynamic flags too

Fix building on 5.02

Generate
  int main (int argc, char *argv [])
instead of
  int main (void)

Suggested by: Nicolas Oury

Skeleton 6.0 release notes.

defaultsHook is now ghc_rts_opts.

Update version numbering policy

Version 6.0

--with-gcc=<path>: for mingw32 plat, canonicalise path using cygpath

---------------------------------
	Improve the dynamic-linking story
	---------------------------------

Arrange proper initialisation for the dynamic linker.  Whenever the dynamic linker does
anything (Linker.linkExpr), it first initialises itself, arranging to only do so once
of course.

"Initialising itself" includes loading any .o files, libraries, and packages specified
on the command line.  The main effect of all this is to fix a Template Haskell problem,
which happened when a TH link needed some C library that it couldn't link.  Now it does.



While I was at it, I tidied up main/Main.hs quite a bit.  This is a delicate area (handling
the command line arguments), but I don't believe I broke anything!  All the libraries
build, and lots of tests run.

Wolfgang: I also jiggled the darwin_TARGET_OS stuff a little in Linker.lhs, but again
I think the net effect is zero. You might want to check.

Comments only

--------------------------
	Minor Template Haskell bug
	--------------------------

This bug meant that spliced-in class declarations yielded a 'op not in scope',
where op was the class operation.  Thanks to Andre Pang for spotting this.

Some consequential tidying up in parsing too.

- rearrange the file a little

- build a binary distribution from stage 2 by default, unless
  overriden from the command line.

Remove obsolete references to DriFT, DtdToHaskell and Xtract.

tryM again: make it work with GHC 5.02.x (I hope).  Seems we changed
the representation of UserErrors several times in the last few
releases...

Fix a pair of off-by-one errors that meant that BCOs were normally two
words larger than they needed to be.

Eeek!  intsToReverseBitmap was borked for bitmaps with more than
wORD_SIZE_IN_BITS entries.

More Win32 help

Add checks for ghc-pkg and green-card 3.00 (used in x11 lib)

Rename per-package configuration files from $(PACKAGE).conf.* to
package.conf.*, making them easier to find (since each package is
in a separate directory anyway).
