Well, I got bored in class, so here's a sketch:
http://lafalafu.com/krc/Scratch/ghc-logo-idea.png

This is still based on Yitzhak's idea of incorporating the Clyde Arc.
The extra bit of the lambda that extends on the left and turns into a
chip is meant to look like the bridge, though I'm not sure I got the
shape right.

I hereby release the above-linked image into the public domain. If
anyone wants to mess with it or make something prettier that's based
on the same idea, feel free. If anyone likes it, I could try to turn
this into something more polished.

I'm not sure to what extent GHC-land is crying out for a new logo, though...

Well, that was actually just in response to the "Installation
instructions: nil" comment in the OP. I'd love to use something that
has no installation instructions :-)

Cheers,
