For a long time there wasn't a 64-bit GHC at all, and it still throws a number of warnings and occasional other fits (especially on Lion where Apple changed the linker yet again, but you're on SL so that at least shouldn't matter).  Also, the HP stuff doesn't play along with MacPorts very well, and MacPorts' own HP is even older than Debian stable.

Well, I just realized that since I only need this for learning purposes (not production code) I may as well do it under linux. I have my linux box on a kvm with the mac. (That's my current form of "virtualization" ;-) I'll do this if ubuntu and HP work well together. Thoughts?
