Hi Bjorn. The version of Hugs that we provide on the SOE website is the
Jan 2005 version, I believe. We have not tested it with the latest Hugs
release -- sorry.

I should mention that maintaining SOEGraphics, which depends on HGL,
which in turn depends on Win32, across mutiple platforms and across
multiple compilers has been somewhat of a nightmare. We are now looking
at Gtk2Hs as an alternative, more portable, and technically superior,
implementation, although we are currently focussing that effort on GHC.

Best regards, -Paul
