Errors building hat 2.04

hi all, after running configure on the latest release of
hat, 'make' gives me:

>>>
/export/home/yang/tmp/pkg/hat-2.04/lib/ix86-Linux/config:11:
***
missing separator.  Stop.
>>>

that config file contains:

how do i fix this build problem? i read this thread:

http://www.haskell.org/pipermail/hat/2006-February
/000256.html

but that patch was already applied in the release i
downloaded.

thanks in advance for any help.

Yes, this seems to be the same error as in the mail thread
you quoted.

Ensure that there is no whitespace at all, i.e.
  GHCSYM=604

If the patch to the 'configure' script did not work, then
you may also
need to make a similar change in the file
targets/`harch`/ghcsym

Malcolm,
   This seems to be a recurring problem.  Do we have a list
of what  
ghc produces on each platform?  If we had that, I guess we
could find  
a regexp that works on all known systems.

It's not so much ghc, as _gcc_, because the extra
whitespace/#pragmas
are inserted by the C preprocessor.  I believe the regexp
currently in
CVS is correct (not "^#" and not "^$"),
but perhaps an alternative which
actually searches for numbers on a line of their own (e.g.
"^[0-9]*$")
might be better.

Regards,
    Malcolm

to be honest, as much as i'd love contributing, i often
don't have the
time to go in and debug software that i'm trying/evaluating.
(as i
said, the patch was already applied in the tarball i
downloaded.) such
pursuits almost always turn into much deeper time sinks than
how
they're initially presented to me.

when will the next version be available that fixes this?
i'll wait for
that. thanks.
