Alas, still no joy.
This sequence:
tar xjf ghc-6.2.1-src.tar.bz2
tar xzf ghc-6.2.1-i386-unknown-linux-hc.tar.gz
cd ghc-6.2.1
./configure --enable-hc-boot --enable-hc-boot-unregisterised --prefix=/usr

Thanks --- turns out my problem was that something in my env breaks
the makefile, Simon gave me what I hope is the voodoo to get it to
work.

Which brings us around to the question that opened this thread, is
there any way to install the unregistered build?
Thanks,

I'm by no means a Haskell expert, or even a Haskell programmer; but
my unregistered build does do hello.hs successfully.

Alas, no joy; again, "make" does nothing.
These Makefiles are cleverer than I am, I can't quite figure ou

Everything was fine up to there, but "make" does nothing at all.

If it were possible to construct and ship a statically-linked ghc,
that might be ideal; it should be portable across a wide range of
Linuxes, regardless of wh
I too would be happy with an unregistered build.
I've tried off and on to port ghc to my linux distro (uses static
linking against uClibc, glibc isn't present at all). Every time I go
through the process, I get stuck at the point where I seem to have a
working unregistered build. I can't quite fin
