With libm.so.2 added to my Solaris 9 machine, ghc from the binary distribution 
finally works.

One additional information:
For compiling the source distribution it was necessary to make a wrapping in 
rts/posix/OSMem.c, as I have no stdint.h:

#ifdef HAVE_STDINT_H
#include <stdint.h>
#endif

I also had to set explicitely
  SRC_HC_OPTS = -optc-mcpu=ultrasparc -opta-mcpu=ultrasparc
as Duncan Coutts already pointed out.

Thanks for the help!
