Changes are:
- The incompatibilities between Hugs and the Haskell Graphics Library
have been fixed, and binaries for the HGL are now available on the
Hugs download page.
- The missing standard libraries Directory, CPUTime, Time and Locale
have been added along with a complete implementation of Haskell98 IO.
- Hugs is now delivered with most of the hslibs libraries installed
in the lib/exts/ directory. The added modules cover the Edison,
Parsec, HaXml, QuickCheck, concurrent, monad, and html subdirectories
of hslibs.
- The :set option now refuses the user to set a module search path
that doesn't contain the Prelude. This is to protect users from
accidentally rendering their Hugs setups unusable, esp. so on
Windows machines where the options are persisted to the Registry.
- MacOS X is now one of the supported unix ports, with pre-built
binaries available on the download page.
- Experimental support is provided for hierarchical module names,
where a module name A.B.C is mapped onto the file path
A/B/C{.hs,.lhs} and appended to each of the path prefixes in
HUGSPATH until the name of a readable file is found.

New Features Include:
- A Foreign Function Interface closely modeled after the one
provided by GHC.
- Built-in, Hood-like debugging support.
- A new syntax for recursive monad bindings.
- A new GUI under Windows that doesn't consume all CPU time.
CXXFLAGS, and LDFLAGS by the buildlink.mk files so remove the extra
definitions to add them from the package Makefiles. As advised by the
bsd.buildlink.mk file, also ensure that the buildlink.mk files are
included prior to defining any package-specific CFLAGS/LDFLAGS to ensure
that the buildlink directories are at the head of the compiler search
paths.
Use BUILDLINK_INCDIR, BUILDLINK_LIBDIR for locations of linked headers
and libraries. Create a variable BUILDLINK_TARGETS whose value is the
list of build-link targets to execute.
and do-install targets. This is better as the configure script gets
called with the correct environment settings. Also set the values for
INSTALL_PROGRAM and INSTALL_DATA used in the project's Makefile to their
pkgsrc BSD_* counterparts.
- New, optional Makefile variable HOMEPAGE, specifies a URL for
the home page of the software if it has one.
- The value of HOMEPAGE is used to add a link from the
README.html files.
- pkglint updated to know about it. The "correct" location for
HOMEPAGE in the Makefile is after MAINTAINER, in that same
section.
