Michael, Don't the available binaries work for you? From the output it seems you are on x86, which is of course supported. The requirements are just libreadline.so.4 and libncurses.so.5. Also, if you still want to compile from source, you could grab those binaries and them to compile GHC yourself, then perhaps make a debian package.
Although those binaries have been created on Fedora, I'm on Ubuntu and they work flawlessly. By the way, you can have multiple versions of GHC coexisting too.
