ghc failed to build ghc

I tried building the ghc v6.0 source using ghc and it
failed. I tried both ghc v6.0 and ghc v5.04.2 compilers.

Platform: Linux RedHat v9.0
Memory: 194MB
CPU: Celeron 466
GHC Compiler: v6.0 (Linux binary tar)
                          v5.04.2 (Linux RedHat RPM)
GNU tool chain: Default RH v9.0 installation.

Configure options: --with-x --enable-src-tree-haddock
--enable-objectio

The compilation died while linking ghc-pkg.bin

The error message is:

libHSrts.a (RtsFlags.o) (.text + 0xf1): In function
'splitRtsFlags': 
    undefined reference to '__ctype_b'

Both v6.0 and v5.04.2 compilers gave the same error
message.
