RE: MSYS build - stage 2 problem

There are several steps you need to check

1.  hsc2hs creates System\Posix\Signals_hsc_make.c
You say this works

2.  hsc2hs runs gcc to create System\Posix\Signals_hsc_make.o
You have not checked that this works.  You can do this by first running
hsc2hs with -v, then doing step 1 manually (hsc2hs --no-compile), then
copy/pasting the gcc command from the -v step.  Please try this.  Does
the .o file get created?  Does gcc run?

3.  hsc2hs deletes System\Posix\Signals_hsc_make.c
This presumably works

4.  hsc2hs runs gcc System\Posix\Signals_hsc_make.o  -o
System\Posix\Signals_hsc_make.exe
Does this step work?  You can try it too by hand.

5.  hsc2hs deletes System\Posix\Signals_hsc_make.o
This definitely fails

6.  hsc2hs runs System\Posix\Signals_hsc_make.exe

Try these and send output.
