[Pkg-haskell-maintainers] Bug#594181: alex: Generates code with warnings on big endian CPUs

[Erik de Castro Lopo]

Package: alex
Version: 2.3.3-1
Severity: normal
Tags: upstream


Alex generated code compiles with warnings on big endian CPUs and we're
using it on code which we want to compile with -Werror.

I've logged a bug with upstream and submitted a patch:

    http://trac.haskell.org/haskell-platform/ticket/141

When upstream releases a new version, we can package it and close
this bug.
