Comment(by jeffschwab):
Happy is apparently included in the 32-bit binary platform download;
configure and make work with these instructions:

leopard.html
Sadly, make install fails with an error in mtl (a "monad transformer
library," whatever that is):
haskell-platform-2009.2.0.2$ make install
scripts/install.sh
Installing mtl-1.1.0.2...
Error:
The mtl-1.1.0.2/Setup script does not exist or cannot be run
make: *** [install] Error 2
The script does exist, but apparently has unresolved dependencies:
haskell-platform-2009.2.0.2$ ghc packages/mtl-1.1.0.2/Setup.hs
Undefined symbols:
"___stginit_Cabalzm1zi6zi0zi3_DistributionziSimple_", referenced from:
___stginit_Main_ in Setup.o
"_Cabalzm1zi6zi0zi3_DistributionziSimple_defaultMain_closure",
referenced from:
_Main_main_info in Setup.o
_ZCMain_main_info in Setup.o
_Main_main_srt in Setup.o
_ZCMain_main_srt in Setup.o
ld: symbol(s) not found
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
I don't know who mangled those "_Cabalzm1zi6zi..." names, but the XCode 3
default c++filt does not seem to recognize them.
