There's some stuff at the bottom of the download page, though looking
at it again, it could be improved.  Basically

        cd hugs98/src/unix
        ./configure --with-fptools=<directory containing libraries and hslibs>
        cd ..
        make install

If the hugs98 directory contains fptools (or a link to it) you can omit
the argument to configure.  The conversion doesn't change anything under
the fptools directory, but it can be confused by some of the products of
a GHC build (namely outputs of happy or hsc2hs), if they're lying about.

You need the OpenGL development stuff installed for the OpenGL/GLUT
packages to build (but it doesn't harm anything else if they don't).

I don't use it myself, but Sven has, and I think it's up to date.
