RE: Hello world fails on Win32

I believe that this temporary-file-bug on Win98 has been cured in the 6.2 
branch, and will be in 6.2.1.

| Subject: Hello world fails on Win32
| 
| Hi,
| 
| Two months ago there has been a discussion started by Gour with the
| subject "Hello world fails on Win32". I just upgraded to ghc 6.2 (on
| win98), and experienced the same problem. I don't have a clue what is
| wrong, but I did find out that the failing command does not fail when
| entered manually. So, quoting Gour's last message:
| 
| > c:\ghc\ghc-6.2\gcc.exe -B"C:\GHC\GHC-6.2\gcc-lib\/" -I. -I. -c
| c:\tmp\ghc-522475.s -o main.o
| >
| > Failed: c:\ghc\ghc-6.2\gcc.exe -B"C:\GHC\GHC-6.2\gcc-lib\/" -I. -I. -c
| c:\tmp\ghc-522475.s -o main.orawSystem: does not exist (No such file or
| directory)
| > *** Deleting temp files
| > Deleting: c:/tmp/ghc-522475.s
| 
| I get a similar error. But when I run ghc with the option -keep-tmp-files,
| and then after this error manually enter the exact same command, in this
| case:
| 
| c:\ghc\ghc-6.2\gcc.exe -B"C:\GHC\GHC-6.2\gcc-lib\/" -I. -I. -c
| c:\tmp\ghc-522475.s -o main.o
| 
| then it does work. After that, another error occures when gcc is called by
| the linker, which can be worked around analoguously.
| 
| I don't know whether this problem has been solved yet during the past two
| months, but maybe this helps...
