That's correct.  However, since these are different versions of GHC,
you'll need a set of libraries that the GHC package can use (it won't be
able to use your 6.4 libraries, because it'll complain about the version
stamps in the .hi files being different).  You should point it at the
libraries in your CVS HEAD tree instead.

Cheers,
        Simon
