I am attempting to build GHC 6.10.1 on a CentOS 4.5 machine.
At the 'make install' stage, I get this error:
{{{

This was also reported here http://www.haskell.org/pipermail/glasgow-
haskell-bugs/2008-November/015981.html but with no follow up.
I am building using GHC 6.10.4 (which I cannot use for other purposes
because of bug #3179). I have to compile from source because of #2211
I already have GHC 6.8.3 built, so I will uninstall 6.10.4 to try to build
6.10.1 with 6.8.3 instead, and report back here if I have success.
Otherwise, as GHC 6.10.1 is apparently the only version of GHC that I can
use (library dependencies rule out 6.8.*), I would really appreciate help
on fixing this or a workaround!
