Hmm... now that you mention it, probably yes. There was some 
split-objs-related problem with gcc 3.3 that I fixed in September - I 
don't remember the exact error message that gave me.
You should be fine if you sudo gcc_select 3.1 or use a configure option 
to make GHC use "gcc3" as it's C compiler.
Or you could just take the latest revision of 
fptools/ghc/driver/split/ghc-split.lprl from the HEAD or STABLE cvs 
trees and use plug it into the old 6.0.1 sources.

Cheers,
