Make the bindist AC_INIT line match the main configure script's This means that PACKAGE_TARNAME gets set, so the default docdir is correct.
Remove the old platform code from the bindist configure.ac
Make our install variables etc compliant with GNU standards; fixes #1924
Test "ghc-pkg check" passes in bindisttest Also fixes it so that it really does pass (we weren't substituting the GMP variables in the RTS package config).
GHC new build system megapatch
Remove all references to -mno-cygwin We shouldn't need it, as we don't call cygwin's gcc, and it was causing problems with the nightly builders passing it to GHC.
make in-place has bitrotted, so don't advertise or support it
FIX #1427, #1569: gcc 4.2.x needs -fno-toplevel-reorder We now have various flags that need to be passed to gcc, but only if the local gcc version supports them. So instead of wiring this knowledge into ghc when it is built, we now put these "extra gcc flags" into a text file in $libdir, extra-gcc-flags, which is created by configure. It is also created by the configure script of a binary distribution, so a binary dist is independent of the gcc version used to build it. Hopefully I got the binary-dist stuff right, but binary dists aren't currently working so we'll need to come back and check this.
Install the RTS from a bindist correctly
Fix bindist creation Bindists should now work again, when doing "make install" at least. "make in-place" is probably still broken.
Make building binary dists work with cabalised libraries
Initial support for x86_64-darwin Basic -fvia-C code generation is there, not much testing.
[project @ 2005-06-09 06:01:51 by wolfgang] Support i386-apple-darwin for binary dists. MERGE TO STABLE
[project @ 2005-03-12 18:25:07 by desrt] configure-bin.ac: I didn't know this file existed. Add powerpc-linux and powerpc64-linux targets.
[project @ 2005-03-10 14:03:28 by simonmar] Add x86_64 platforms
[project @ 2004-11-20 16:02:41 by panne] Pushed -fomit-frame-pointer test down to ghc subdir + cleanup
[project @ 2003-08-18 14:54:40 by panne] Ooops, forgot about a dozen references to configure.in... :-}
