But since you suggested it, I tried running all the test commands from within the ghc-7.10.1/testsuite directory and they all failed as follows:

Just tried this myself. I get very similar errors. The reason is, AFAICT, that the testsuite tarball contains some build-artifacts, particularly some binaries. A "make clean" in the testsuite directory before running the tests helps. Regards, Bernhard
