I am trying to add new Posix functionality and it would be nice to be able to build unix myself. In any case, I will try your suggestion and see what happens.

This works for me, with GHC 6.8.2 and
http://hackage.haskell.org/packages/archive/unix/2.2.0.0/unix-2.2.0.0.tar.gz

$ ghc --make Setup
$ ./Setup configure --user
$ ./Setup build

If it's not working for you then you might need a RHEL package called
something like gmp-devel. If that doesn't fix it, please send us the
exact commands you are running and the complete output.

Note that you wouldn't normally compile the unix package yourself,
however, as it is one of the packages that comes with GHC.

Thanks
Ian
