[Apologies if you see this message more than once -- dcs.gla.ac.uk
 seems to be bouncing mail to the glasgow-haskell-bugs list.]

I am having trouble installing the latest GHC binary bundle for 
Linux (4.04).  I've tried it under Redhat Linux 5.02, and a
Slackware Linux distribution (kernel = 2.0.35), with the same results.

GHC installs okay, but cannot link the standard Main.hs program
that is given in the install guide.

The first problem is that -lgmp gives errors.  (It is apparently not
installed as part of the default Linux package in either system).
I fixed this by installing the gmp package, but I wonder if it could 
be packaged with ghc.

More seriously, I then get the following link errors about missing 
data definitions.

Any help would be appreciated!  Thanks.
Mark.
