Comment (by matthijs):
I hadn't thought ahead that far, turned out I needed ghc for building the
platform and other packages anyway... So, perhaps you're right and this is
not an issue at all, though I was kinda confused by needing compile tools
for installing a binary tarball. Perhaps the configure script could output
a message for this stuff, though I think that's not too easy in autoconf?
Anyway, feel free to close this ticket :-)
