Isn't there a way to use some stripped-down version of ghc and the base 
libraries, providing only what the user really needs, in versions which 
are known to work, and supply that together with the application?

I'd love to use haskell as a configuration language, provide some 
combinators and effectively get the rest for free.
But it is not acceptable for a user to go through the mess of installing 
a ghc environment on, say, Windows, only to change some settings.
