[Haskell-cafe] problems with HOC install from svn

[Ross Mellgren]

I have binary-0.5 not binary-0.5.0.1, but it doesn't have any dylibs.  
Moreover, I was under the impression that GHC does not yet support  
shared libraries like those, so I'm not sure why it would be looking  
for one. I can't really speculate, maybe more of the build output  
might help?
