Thanks! I installed 6.8.2 binary and that successfully compiled 6.8.3 source
with gcc 4.1.1. (I am still not sure why a direct 6.8.3. binary installation
did not work for me, but now I think everything is good). Thanks very much
again!
Di, Yu

Do you know how I can fix this problem? My ghc and gcc versions are:
The Glorious Glasgow Haskell Compilation System, version 6.4.2
gcc (GCC) 4.1.1 20060724 (prerelease) (4.1.1-4pclos2007)
(I also tried ghc 6.2.0 and gcc 3.3.6, but all combinations resulted in
the same error message)
The error is coming from your installed 6.4.2, and I strongly suspect that
it is incompatible with the gcc version you have installed. You could try
downgrading gcc, but your best bet is to just install a recent GHC binary
distribution.
Cheers,
Simon
