Thanks a lot!

I'll try your patches. My current workaround is/was to disable 
dependency generation, but this is of course not a sustainable 
solution. BTW, I also had to write package description files in the new 
format. Which ones do you use?

Some of the examples under directory 'contrib' are broken in version 
0.9. I needed to make a number of (superficial) changes to get them to 
compile and run. Interestingly, and this is something I often observed 
with Haskell, as soon as I got it to compile, everything worked as 
expected. The changes where easy to make, using the haddock generated 
docs. WxHaskell is cool!
