I'm running into some huge compile times that I'm hoping someone will

Here is what I've discovered...

I built four versions of gcc and used them to build ghc-6.8.3. I
selected the last point release of the last four major gcc releases:
gcc-4.0.4
gcc-4.1.2
gcc-4.2.4
gcc-4.3.2

Summary: gcc-4.0.4 or gcc-4.1.2 seems to be the best choice at the
moment for ghc on sparc/solaris.

FWIW I've built 6.8.2 with gcc-4.2.2, ti was slow but it built and the testsuite didn't look too horrible.
