I am operating under the assumption that Idid have a broken gcc.
I installed a new one
This is what happened when I tried compiling ghc-6.8.2
make all
/usr/bin/ghc -H16m -O -w -I. -Iinclude -Rghc-timing -ignore-package
Cabal -ignore-package filepath -I../libraries -fglasgow-exts -no-recomp
-c System/FilePath/Posix.hs -o System/FilePath/Posix.o -ohi
System/FilePath/Posix.hi
cc1: error: unrecognized option `-fno-unit-at-a-time'

make[2]: *** [System/FilePath/Posix.o] Error 1
make[1]: *** [boot] Error 2

this is exactly what happened prior to installing a new gcc. Here's
what config.log says

Reading specs from

I have also tried to install the binaries, this may be more promising.
./configure --prefix=$HOME

this is exactly what happened when I tried to install the binaries with
the old gcc.

whew. Okay can anyone give me ideas on how to proceed?
I have also verified I have the correct libreadline.so.5,
libncurses.so.5.
