Debian has had a working amd64 package of ghc for some time now. It is built out of the standard source base for it. You can find that at:
http://ftp.debian.org/debian/pool/main/g/ghc6
You'll want to grab the orig.tar.gz and the diff.gz files.
If you want to grab an amd64 .deb to try, go to:
http://debian-amd64.alioth.debian.org/pure64/pool/unstable/main/amd64/g/ ghc6/
Even if you're not running Debian, there are tools available to convert a .deb to a RPM or tgz package. Or, you can easily unpack a deb using only ar(1) and tar(1).
My amd64 hardware arrived yesterday, shouldn't be too long before we have a registerised port of GHC, and possibly a native code generator... Cheers, Simon
