Compilation bug

[Sigbjorn Finne]

--with-hc only configures what's used to compile 'generic' Haskell
code (i.e., not the contens of ghc/compiler). (As Simon suggests),
use --with-ghc to control what GHC to to use to compile the
compiler bits, i.e.,

  ./configure --with-ghc=/usr/local/bin/ghc-5.02.2 \
                   --with-hc=/usr/local/bin/ghc-5.02.2

will use 5.02.2 all over the place.
