Odd; make sure that you've got PrelErr.hi-boot (and PrelGHC.hi-boot)
in ghc/lib/std  (don't know why they shouldn't be there, but worth
checking.)

If that doesn't show up anything unexpected, do

  cd ghc/lib/std
  make EXTRA_HC_OPTS='-dshow-rn-trace -optC-dshow-rn-imports'

and let us know what this produced on stderr.

Also, what does 'uname -a'  &
   'grep C_LIB_VERSION /usr/include/*.h'

report?
