Um, scratch that. I've apparently become confused as to which release
I was actually building.

So I've run into a (legitimate) issue with building 6.8.3.
Initiall I was getting things like this:
build error:

Printer.c:962:17: error: bfd.h: No such file or directory
this was being caused by not being able to find binutils-related
headers. similar errors occured after not being able to find readline
headers. (these were in a non-standard location).
I got around this by exporting some env vars:
export CPPFLAGS="-I/lusr/gnu/include -I/lusr/include"
export LDFLAGS="-L/lusr/lib -L/lusr/gnu/lib"
however, that still didn't solve the problem, and eventually I resorted
to "grafting" (copying via symlinks) the include files into the
build-dir/includes directory.
that worked until I ran into this:

checking for rl_readline_version... yes
checking for rl_begin_undo_group... yes
checking for rl_erase_empty_line... yes
checking for rl_free_undo_list... yes

specifically, what is failing is the "setup/Setup makefile -f
GNUmakefile" command.

however, if you cd into build-dir/libraries/readline and run this manually:
./configure --with-readline-includes=/lusr/gnu/include
--with-readline-libraries=/lusr/gnu/lib
you can then run the "setup/Setup makefile -f GNUmakefile" and it works.
so I thought I'd try simply modifying the libraries/Makefile:
bash-3.2$ diff -urN libraries/Makefile.orig libraries/Makefile

At this point I think this has gotten a little too hack-ish, so I
thought I'd ask the mailing list what for proper way of telling ghc
where your readline installation lives?
I think the problem you're describing never got fixed: see
http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/2970
and then we decided to replace readline with editline (bad mistake) and
later decided to adopt haskeline instead. I believe some OSs (e.g.
FreeBSD) that put readline outside the standard locations have their own
hacks to get around this.
Cheers,
Simon
