You need to run ranlib on a bunch of the libHS*.a files. Also, linking 
with ghc seems to need libgmp:

/usr/bin/ld: table of contents for archive: 
/usr/local/lib/ghc-5.03/libHSconcurrent.a is out of date; rerun ranlib(1) 
(can't load from it)
/usr/bin/ld: table of contents for archive: 
/usr/local/lib/ghc-5.03/libHSlang.a is out of date; rerun ranlib(1) 
(can't load from it)
/usr/bin/ld: table of contents for archive: 
/usr/local/lib/ghc-5.03/libHSlang_cbits.a is out of date; rerun ranlib(1)

/usr/bin/ld: can't locate file for: -lgmp

Doing ranlib was easy, but I'm not sure about -lgmp. Was there supposed 
to be a libgmp.a included? I notice other ghc versions for MacOS X 
include a libgmp.a.
