@alex:tunstall.xyzAlex Right now I'm using gcc13Stdenv, so I may need to take a closer look at the error from newer GCCs... 13:50:16

In reply to @emilazy:matrix.org
(it needs Lennart's branch of Hugs right? presumably we could just send PRs and treat that as the upstream)
Sounds good to me.
13:50:46
@emilazy:matrix.orgemilyyeah I would prefer a moratorium on adding more GCC 13 at this point :P13:50:47
@emilazy:matrix.orgemilyit's not hard to adapt stuff to newer versions13:50:54
@emilazy:matrix.orgemilyjust slightly tedious sometimes13:50:59

This one's non-trivial... Actually something wrong with Hugs' version of base IIRC (maybe a slightly less old base could be patched in?)

ERROR "libraries/bootlib/Foreign/C/Types.hs":173 - Undefined type constructor "NotReallyAType"

@Ericson2314:matrix.orgJohn EricsonOo Haven caught up in all of this, but I like where things are going 13:54:21
@Ericson2314:matrix.orgJohn Ericson*haven't 13:54:25
@emilazy:matrix.orgemilythis is at runtime?13:55:12
@emilazy:matrix.orgemilysmells like latent UB in Hugs that's getting exposed13:55:23
@alex:tunstall.xyzAlexNope, build time.13:55:29
@emilazy:matrix.orgemilybut that's not C13:55:39
@emilazy:matrix.orgemilyI mean it's Hugs outputting that right13:55:50
@emilazy:matrix.orgemilyso it's Hugs runtime13:55:55
@alex:tunstall.xyzAlex The NotReallyAType comes from base's autoconf script somehow not finding the corresponding Haskell type for a few C types. 13:56:31
