New description:

 I was trying to build some haskell.  Here's what happened:
 {{{
 $ runhaskell Setup.hs configure
 Configuring c0c-3.9...
 Setup.hs: At least the following dependencies are missing:
 mtl -any, syb -any
 $ runhaskell Setup.hs configure
 $ runhaskell Setup.hs configure

 $ runhaskell Setup.hs configure
 $ runhaskell Setup.hs build
 Setup.hs: internal error: stg_ap_v_ret
     (GHC version 7.4.1 for x86_64_apple_darwin)
     Please report this as a GHC bug:

 $ runhaskell Setup.hs configure
 $ runhaskell Setup.hs build
 $
 }}}
 In addition to the failure which it told me to report, it appears to be
 sometimes unable to locate the mtl and syb packages which I installed.  I
 don't know if these are related.  My platform is MacOS 10.6 on which I
 installed the tarball of ghc with gcc47 as my default gcc and haskell-
 platform version 2012.2.0.0 (built from source).
