Hadrian's `--configure` flag is broken on Windows
For some reason I can no longer use Hadrian's --configure
flag. When I use it, the configuration step fails with the following obscure error:
rm: cannot remove '.MTREE': No such file or directory
This is certainly caused by this line in configure.ac
:
https://github.com/ghc/ghc/blob/93e86d6103757b43017535c92bc6970e9e2315a5/configure.ac#L358
It's unclear what should be done in this case.
Here is the command line I use to invoke Hadrian:
hadrian\build --configure -j --flavour=quickest --integer-simple
When I run the configure script manually from the MinGW shell, it works fine.
