Hello ,

i've seen the following report from a man who tried to compile 6.8.1
under linux without having any ghc installed:


checking for ghc... no
checking for path to top of build tree... 
./configure: line 2724: -v0: command not found
./configure: line 2728: utils/pwd/pwd: No such file or directory

line 2724:
$WithGhc -v0 --make pwd -o pwd

the $WithGhc variable is empty



afaiu, configure should stop at the moment when previous ghc isn't
found

(he was extracted ghc-6.8.1-src-extralibs.tar.bz2 and ghc-6.8.1-src.tar.bz2
if that matter)
