You don't need to uninstall GHC, ever, except for disk space reasons.
You can easily have thirteen versions of GHC installed and happily
coexisting:
stefan at stefans:~$ ghci-6.
ghci-6.4.2 ghci-6.7 ghci-6.7.20070223
ghci-6.7.20070402 ghci-6.7.20070502 ghci-6.7.20070601
ghci-6.7.20070712 ghci-6.7.20070829 ghci-6.6.1
ghci-6.7.20070213 ghci-6.7.20070323 ghci-6.7.20070413
ghci-6.7.20070518 ghci-6.7.20070612 ghci-6.7.20070826
