Comment (by duncan):
You need gcc etc to be able to use ghc, so surely it is right for the
./configure script to check for them.
What do you expect to be able to do with ghc but without gcc et al? I
suppose it'd be possible to use ghci and runghc but not use ghc to compile
standalone programs. Is that what you're trying to do?
