Unfortunately, make binary-dist is broken in the HEAD and the 6.8 branch for systems without a pre-installed gmp library. The reason is that distrib/Makefile lacks code that installs the embedded gmp. For the Mac OS X 10.5 binary distribution that I just announced on the GHC users list, I patched the Makefile with the attached patch. However, I am not sure whether that's the best/intended way of doing this. (Just invoking gmp/Makefile doesn't work, but it might be nice to fix that instead of inlining the GMP install in the toplevel Makefile.)

What's the Right Thing to do here?
