I installed ghc 6.6 from source ok. But then when I tried installing
it with the "extralibs" to get all the functionality that had been
unbundled in 6.6, I hit a glitch.
Anyone ever seen anything like this?
In case it matters, this is ssh-ed in to a virtualized user mode linux
session.

I'm guessing what happened is that during the install the build system decided
to rebuild ghc-pkg (I'm not sure why), but by that time you had already
installed the new compiler, and the previous interface files weren't compatible
with the new compiler. (I don't know why that would be the case either, since
both compilers are 6.6...).
You might be able to work around it by
$ (cd compat && make clean && make UseStage1=YES)
$ (cd utils && make clean && make UseStage1=YES)
Cheers,
Simon
