Comment (by thorkilnaur):

 I must confess close to total ignorance to the involved matters, so this
 may be irrelevant: With GHCLibTest.hs differing from the one for 6.6 and
 6.6.1 given by simonmar above as follows:
 {{{
 $ diff ../simonmar/6.6/ghclibtest.hs GHCLibTest.hs
 11c11
 <     do session <- newSession JustTypecheck (Just "/home/simonmar/fp/lib
 /x86_64-unknown-linux/ghc-6.6")
 ---
 >     do session <- newSession JustTypecheck (Just
 "/Users/thorkilnaur/tn/install/ghc-6.6-for-buildbot-
 20070221_1000/lib/ghc-6.6.20070220")
 14c14
 <        setSessionDynFlags session (fst f'){hscTarget = HscNothing}
 ---
 >        setSessionDynFlags session (fst f'){hscTarget = HscInterpreted}

 }}}
 And with:
 {{{
 $ ghc --version
 The Glorious Glasgow Haskell Compilation System, version 6.6.20070220
 $
 }}}
 which I would perhaps denote GHC 6.6.(three quaters), I can do this:
 {{{
 $ echo main | ghci -package ghc GHCLibTest

 I have difficulties these days installing a GHC HEAD and don't exactly see
 how to do this with a ghc-inplace, so I have not been able to try this (or
 rather: The changed version) on a recent HEAD.
