thanks, that seems to have fixed the main build, modulo ALUT setup.
and i can start 'compiler/stage2/ghc-inplace --interactive' just fine.

but now, 'make binary-dist' complains that it can't copy the things that
weren't built, and indeed, 'libraries/Makefile' seems to have hardcoded
'SUBDIRS'. the libraries subdirs show variation wrt *.buildinfo existence, 
so i'm simply checking for existence of dist/, which is sufficient to skip
just ALUT/:

$ darcs whatsnew
plink: unknown option "-O"
{
hunk ./Makefile 389
-       $(MKDIRHIER) $(BIN_DIST_LIBDIR)/$*/setup
-       cp    libraries/$*/setup/Setup   $(BIN_DIST_LIBDIR)/$*/setup
-       cp    libraries/$*/*.cabal       $(BIN_DIST_LIBDIR)/$*
-       cp -a libraries/$*/dist          $(BIN_DIST_LIBDIR)/$*
-       find $(BIN_DIST_LIBDIR)/$*/dist \
-            \( \( -name "*.o" -o -name "*.p_o" \) -a \! -name "HS*" \) \
-            -exec rm {} \;
+       if test -d libraries/$*/dist; then \
+           $(MKDIRHIER) $(BIN_DIST_LIBDIR)/$*/setup; \
+           cp    libraries/$*/setup/Setup   $(BIN_DIST_LIBDIR)/$*/setup; \
+           cp    libraries/$*/*.cabal       $(BIN_DIST_LIBDIR)/$*; \
+           cp -a libraries/$*/dist          $(BIN_DIST_LIBDIR)/$*; \
+           find $(BIN_DIST_LIBDIR)/$*/dist \
+                    \( \( -name "*.o" -o -name "*.p_o" \) -a \! -name "HS*" \) \
+                    -exec rm {} \; ; \
+       else \
+           echo "skipping libraries/$* (no dist/ dir)"; \
+       fi
}

with that, 'make binary-dist' seems to go through as well. but now, i can't
use the ghci in the distribution, which seems to be rather incomplete:

    $ ghc-6.7.20070423/bin/ghcii.sh

shouldn't stuff be copied from ghc-<version>/libraries/<lib>/dist/* into the
ghc-<version> main directory, including docs and package registrations?

getting closer, though;-)
