See attached for the full list.

Looking at those patches, I see that the problem is indeed in the
patch.    Part of the patch is

	+
	+Foreign/ForeignPtr.hs:
	+       if [ $(HC) = ghc6 ]; then cp Foreign/ForeignPtr-ghc6.hs  $@; \
	+                            else cp Foreign/ForeignPtr-other.hs $@; fi
	+

which doesn't work properly in the case when HC=ghc and the ghc program
in the PATH happens to be ghc version 6.2.  HC=ghc seems to be the default
if ghc is in your PATH and you don't specify any options to configure.
