[Haskell-iPhone] Installing ghc-iphone from source

[Tom Murphy]

Also, the line
"cat ../ghc-iphone.patch | patch -p0"
still doesn't work. There is no file "ghc-iphone.patch" among those I
downloaded for this.


Other tries which failed:
"cat ../patch.snowleopard/ | patch -p0"
"cat ../patch.snowleopard/*.patch | patch -p0"
"cat ../patch.snowleopard/01-makefiles-general.patch | patch -p0" (for example)

Thanks for the help!
Tom
