Ouch, I was in a hurry leaving work and forgot copying the error message. It was along the lines "cannot resolve header path: primitive-memops.h" I cannot remember the exact wording.
Anyway, the package does not contain such a header at toplevel, only at cbits/primitive-memops.h. I tried to symlink it, no way. Also copying it over did not resolve the error and changing the .cabal file to read: includes: cbits/primitive-memops.h did not help. I can try to reproduce the error at home later. My suspicion is that ghc-cabal is not prepared to see "includes:" or some other weirdness with "Include-Dirs:" or "Install-Includes:". By 'tarballs' I mean the pre-canned libraries that '.sync-all get' pulls into the ghc source tree (by 'git').
