Here is the information about glib installed on my system

• glib
  Synopsis: Binding to the GLIB library for Gtk2Hs.
  Default available version: 0.13.0.0
  Installed versions: 0.13.0.0

I have XCode5, but I also have ghc 7.83

ghc --version
The Glorious Glasgow Haskell Compilation System, version 7.8.3

The error obviously has something to do with the "blocks" syntax and clang compiler, but I though that was fixed in ghc 7.8

the real question is - is why is glade requiring glib < 0.13 ? If it is not a real requirement - please fix this so we can install glad. Otherwise - I would suggest to update the glade package to match the rest of the system.

As it is now - it is unusable.

A workaround for this is to specify --with-gcc=gcc-4.9 when installing the package.
