Linux users don't have easy binary installers, usually.
Speaking about which - this is made a lot more difficult than it need be due to the way libc doesn't work with statically linked executables. Basically, it seems to manually load hardwired dynamic libraries for various functionality that you typically *don't* want in your compiler (nsswitch and whatnot). Perhaps there's a stripped down libc that ghc could link with that avoids this? Or some other solution to this. -k -- If I haven't seen further, it is by standing in the footprints of giants
