Whether you are trying to build your own GHC compilers on CentOS 5 or just get a working GHC, http://justhub.org/download is a good place to start as you will be able to get a variety of compilers and platforms and the GCC and binutils packages used to build them (installed in /usr/hs/gcc and /usr/hs/binutils).
