I mean not "so old" instead of "latest". I am currently using this.

~$ ghc --version
The Glorious Glasgow Haskell Compilation System, version 7.8.3

I had problems with MacPorts for Python and Perl. The general

by other language platforms. As if I use MacPorts for managing
packages from these languages, I am limited by what are available from
MacPorts.
