Up to now I've only used binary versions of GHC, but since my operating system's (OpenBSD) version of GHC is lagging behind (currently at 6.6.1), I need to update it. I tried using my system's ghc-6.6.1 to compile ghc-6.10.4 but it failed due to haskeline not being installed (and trying to install it also failed).
If Haskeline continues to make trouble (it seems to at least contribute to the crashing of GHCi on PowerPC), you could try to do a build without GHCi first --- Haskeline is not needed for the compiler. (I haven't tried that yet myself, since it only crashes at runtime.) Wolfram
