RPMs for: GHC version 5.00.2 is available

[Julian Seward (Intl Vendor)]

Thanks once again to Tom and Manuel for building RH6.2 and
RH7.x RPMs of ghc-5.00.2.  I'll shortly put these RPMs at
the usual place, the download pages at http://www.haskell.org/ghc,
so you can get them from there too.

Note also that a build for Solaris 2.7 (sparc) is also now
available.

The ghc-prof-* packages contain optional libraries for profiling.  The
packages for 6.2 are courtesy of Tom Moertel.

If you build from the source rpm using an older version of
GHC, note that you have to build the system twice if you
like to use the interactive environment.  The second build should use
the compiler generated in the first.
