Well, support for that version has definitely bitrotted, but it
shouldn't be impossible to fix. How far do you get, what kind of
errors do you get?
The link I included to my tale of woe on the wiki answers the
question, but, I admit, in a way that's a bit interleaved with
profanity. So, in short:
(after running make in ghc:)
gcc -O -DTABLES_NEXT_TO_CODE -I. -I../rts -c mkDerivedConstants.c
-o mkDerivedConstants.o

I ASSumed that this was a gcc 3.1 vs. gcc 3.3 issue, and then got
stuck trying to upgrade gcc (I'm now downloading the .dmg for it per
Judah's suggestion to see if it helps). I don't know if it really is
or not. At the least, if there is a dependency on newer gcc versions
or on include files not found in OS 10.2, it would be nice to have
configure warn you about it.
Cheers,
Kirsten
