 I don't understand how that could be done.

I agree.  Is there any chance of 6.10.3 reverting the change?

 i think that Haskell Platform will eventually replace what GHC was for

 should be just what its name implies - bare compiler

 but i agree that stripping one package in minor 6.10.2 version, w/o
 Haskell Platform really available was an error
