Homebrew doesn't need an Apple Developer id. It's not written by Apple, so it has nothing to do with their developer program. If you could describe in more detail what you tried and where things went wrong, I could help you figure out how to get around the problem.

You probably will need Xcode installed, which is a free download from developer.apple.com if you don't have your Mac OS X install disc handy. You don't need to pay Apple $99 or any other amount of money to download it, you just need to create a free login on their developer site.

I just used Homebrew (http://mxcl.github.com/homebrew/). Once that's
installed, 'brew install ghc' gets you GHC, GHCi, cabal, etc.
