	You can fiddle with the version in fptools/ghc/mk/version.mk, but I
	can't guarantee that if you don't use a version of the form A.BB.C or
	A.BB.<date>, then things will work properly.  eg. configure scripts
	which look for GHC will attempt to parse the version number and fail if
	it isn't in a recognised form.

Ok I won't do that! How do I get the A.BB.<date> set as a version? Do I have 
edit version.mk? In which case what is the format for <date>?

Hmmm now I've looked int version.mk I see that the ProjectVersion is 5.02.3
when I thought I had checked 5.02.2 out of the repository. This isn't a
problem as the change should work with either version.

ghc is making away as I type so I might be nearly there.
