causing cabal install to fail for hdbc-odbc (darcs head).</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">man ghc still reports that -I is a valid
flag after installing ghc 6.7 from darcs head a couple days ago.</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">I think the problem might be the space
after the -I flag (which is bad for both 6.6.1 and 6.7)</font>

<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">anothing thing is it seems like there's
a new INCLUDE pragma in 6.7. perhaps this should be used in one of the
source files to get it to compile. but which one? I couldn't figure out
what was causing </font>
