I downloaded the GHC source with:

wget http://www.haskell.org/ghc/dist/6.6.1/ghc-6.6.1-src.tar.bz2

Then, I did the following:

tar -xjf ghc-6.6.1-src.tar.bz2 && cd ghc-6.6.1 && ./configure && make

The full session-log can be found at the bottom of this message, but I wanted to point out a few things first. The response to the above ends in:

/usr/local/bin/ghc -H16m -O  -istage1/utils  -istage1/basicTypes  -istage1/types  -istage1/hsSyn  -istage1/prelude  -istage1/rename  -istage1/typecheck  -istage1/deSugar  -istage1/coreSyn  -istage1/specialise  -istage1/simplCore  -istage1/stranal  -istage1/stgSyn  -istage1/simplStg  -istage1/codeGen  -istage1/main  -istage1/profiling  -istage1/parser  -istage1/cprAnalysis  -istage1/ndpFlatten  -istage1/iface  -istage1/cmm  -istage1/nativeGen -Istage1 -cpp -fglasgow-exts -fno-generics -Rghc-timing -I. -Iparser -package unix -ignore-package lang -recomp -Rghc-timing  -H16M '-#include "cutils.h"' -DUSING_COMPAT -i../compat -ignore-package Cabal    -c codeGen/CgPrimOp.hs -o stage1/codeGen/CgPrimOp.o  -ohi stage1/codeGen/CgPrimOp.hi
make[1]: *** No rule to make target `../includes/DerivedConstants.h', needed by `stage1/codeGen/CgProf.o'.  Stop.
make[1]: Leaving directory `/local/usr/src/ghc-6.6.1/compiler'
make: *** [stage1] Error 1

However, there IS a rule for /local/usr/src/ghc-6.6.1/includes/DerivedConstants.h. Thus, after the initial error listed above, I continue by saying:

cd includes && make && cd .. && make

The build continues beyond where it broke down before and makes it up to stage 2 now, but breaks with:

../utils/mkdirhier/mkdirhier stage2
make[2]: ../utils/mkdirhier/mkdirhier: Command not found
make[2]: *** [stage_dirs] Error 127
make[2]: Leaving directory `/local/usr/src/ghc-6.6.1/compiler'
make[1]: *** [stage2] Error 2
make[1]: Leaving directory `/local/usr/src/ghc-6.6.1'
make: *** [bootstrap2] Error 2

Again, there is a rule to build mkdirhier, so, I recap with:

cd utils/mkdirhier && make && cd ../.. && make

Now, it breaks down with:

../utils/ghc-pkg/ghc-pkg-inplace update - --force-files <package.conf.inplace
/bin/sh: ../utils/ghc-pkg/ghc-pkg-inplace: No such file or directory
make[2]: *** [../driver/stamp-pkg-conf-ghc] Error 127
make[2]: Leaving directory `/local/usr/src/ghc-6.6.1/compiler'
make[1]: *** [stage2] Error 2
make[1]: Leaving directory `/local/usr/src/ghc-6.6.1'
make: *** [bootstrap2] Error 2

I haven't really gotten beyond this point, because ghc-pkg-inplace fails to build for me. Since I presume the initial make shouldn't even have broken, I won't continue this chronological report, but simply list relevant information for the first make-break.

I'm on a Intel Pentium 4 machine, running SuSE Linux 10.0. Some commands and their responses:
