But the very reason that cpphs and hsc2hs are distributed with hugs and
nhc98 is for bootstrapping. If you don't already have a Haskell
compiler on your machine, then you can't install cpphs or hsc2hs. But
conversely, you can't install either of these compilers without them.
Let's not go the route of requiring a working ghc before you can install
any other compiler.
