The Glasgow Haskell Compiler -- version 2.03
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
We are pleased to announce the Glasgow Haskell Compiler version 2.03.
GHC 2.03 is a minor upgrade of GHC 2.02. It differs in the following
ways:
* A slew of small bugs are fixed. You can find the complete list
at http://www.cse.ogi.edu/~simonpj/ghc-bugs.html
* Last-minute language changes have been implemented (minor changes
to the libraries, and to module export/hiding scope rules)
* It is only available as a source distribution. If you want to
use it you'll have to build it from source. Nowadays this is
a well-documented process (see the build & installation guide).
None of the bugs in GHC 2.02 are show-stoppers, so you'll only want
to upgrade if you are a build-from-source junkie and the bugs are
irritating you.

How to get GHC 2.03:
The easy way is to go to the WWW GHC distribution page, which is
self-explanatory:
