I am now testing that binary distribution for powerpc on my Leopard G4 notebook.
It is not always working.
It is my habit to compile the Setup.hs or Setup.lhs to "setup" with "ghc --make
Setup.hs -o setup".
The "./setup configure ..." is working.
The "./setup build" causes a segmentation fault. This is for every project I
try (including ones with very default Setup.hs contents). The Cabal-1.2.3.0
used is supplied by the binary distribution of ghc 6.8.2
BUT "runghc Setup.hs build" is working.
And while some things succeed, such as DList-0.4, the Network.FastCGI fails:
chrisk$ ghc --version
The Glorious Glasgow Haskell Compilation System, version 6.8.2
chrisk$ runghc Setup.lhs build
Preprocessing library fastcgi-3001.0.1...

So I sadly say there is still no working ghc 6.8.x for powerpc Leopard.
