Summary: ghc-6.2.2 requires special configure flag...

Initial Comment:
To build from the source at

http://www.haskell.org/ghc/download_ghc_622.html

you need to add the --disable-hc-boot command to 'configure'.  
This isn't mentioned anywhere in the docs, and certainly isn't the 
default config ;).

thanks,
--titus

(on Linux, no previous GHC install)

The --disable-hc-boot option should not be required.  What
goes wrong if you don't have it?

Also, you need GHC installed in order to build the sources.
