You really do not need happy to build ghc. Just ignore the extralibs tarball.
Well that was the crucial fact I needed. 6.8.1 is now built. ghci doesn't work, it complains about an unknown symbol '_environ' in HSbase-3.0.0.0.o but I was able to rerun the timings for my code. WIth -O2 the run time went from about 1.5s to 0.2s. With unsafeRead and unsafeWrite that becomes 0.16s. I can start thinking about writing lots of Fortran in Haskell now. (Anyone have any idea what that missing symbol is about?) -- Dan
