Summary: GHC 5.04 build fail on Mandrake 9.0

Initial Comment:
I try to compile GHC 5.04.1 on Mandrake 9.0 using 
the preinstalled GHC 5.02.2, glibc 2.5.5, gcc 3.2.

The build process aborts with:

The problem here is that your installed GHC 5.02.2 won't 
work with GCC 3.2.  You need to downgrade GCC to 2.95 
first, then build GHC 5.04.1.  Then you can upgrade GCC 
again to 3.2.
