I'm not sure it even works unregistered, actually. The unregistered OS X
x86_64 ghc build that Ian Lynagh made a couple of months ago unfortunately
included a bug that has since been fixed, that appeared (to Austin and me,
at least) to prevent using it to build another GHC with it. And more
recent attempts on my part to make a new unregistered build for x86_64 ran
into several issues as described on #3472 . I've tried several times and
have failed, but maybe my approach is incorrect, so I'd welcome it if
anyone else on this CC list could try similar steps to see if it's PEBKAC
:)
