Uh? In what way do you mean? The 4.08.2 binary package
can be installed anywhere; I tried it myself before we released
it. For a start, as previously suggested
./configure
make in-place
should get you a working system without the need to copy
stuff to any new installation directory. You do need 'make'
to be GNU make and not the Solaris one, but that's about
all.
Can you send me a log of the failed installation attempt(s)?
This ought to work. You really don't want to get into compiling
GHC from source if you can possibly avoid it.
