Hmm. Perhaps you should rename the long form of -L to --list-local-packages.
Just a small note: This was a buglet in System.Console.GetOpt.getOpt, which has been fixed since GHC 5.04.3. Consequently this does not happen if you use a GHC >= 5.04.3 for compiling GHC 6.0. But to be on the safe side, SimonM has renamed the option, anyway...
OK. The official ghc-6.0 binary distribution for Linux seems to have been built with ghc-4.08.2, hence the apparent fault. Was there a reason for choosing to bootstrap with such an old version?
Strange, isn't the official binary distribution a stage-2 compiler with ghci enabled? In this case, ghc-6.0 should have been compiled by itself, or am I missing something? Just surprised ... Andres
