There will be a release of hugs sometime around the end of the year, I
believe, that will fix all of this.  In the meantime, you can grab an
interim version from the following URLs:

http://www.galconn.com/haskell/hugs98-Jul2000-1.i386.rpm
http://www.galconn.com/haskell/hugs98-Jul2000-1.src.rpm

These rpms were built on a redhat-7.0 system.
