Hi, are you compiling from the tarball or the darcs repository? the
tarball shouldn't require DrIFT to be installed. I had not tested DrIFT
with 6.12 but that file should be in UTF8. Hmm... on OSX, is the default
locale a UTF8 one? does ghc 6.12 properly encode to/from utf8 on it by
defualt? could you check, I don't have a mac handy.
Generally OSX takes UTF16 to be the standard encoding (I don't recall if
it's LE or BE), though UTF8 is supported almost everywhere. I haven't
checked to see whether that would affect this particular task though.
