Comment(by luite):

 I've configured the compiler with
 --prefix=/home/luite/haskell/ghc-7.1.0.20101116,  I did encounter issue
 #4503 by the way, but I inserted the BangPatterns extension manually in a
 few places to make it compile.

 After building the compiler, I did the following:
 {{{
 # make install
 # ln -s /home/luite/haskell/ghc-7.1.0.20101116 /home/luite/haskell/ghc
 (this is in my $PATH, so executing 'ghc' now runs the head build)
 # cabal install hmatrix
 (which fails, but some additional packages are fetched and installed, as
 user, not global)
 (change to some other directory, ~/share in my case)
 # cabal unpack hmatrix
 # cd hmatrix-0.10.0.0
 # ghc --make Setup.lhs
 # ./Setup configure -v --user
 (see attached file configure.txt)
 # ./Setup build
 (fails with the error)
 }}}
