I've got 6.10.2 built properly right now (generating the pkg-plist now). I had issues with 6.10.1 and 6.10.3 -- 6.10.1 has a broken ghci out of the box on amd64 (mmap issues arising from the shared library support). See: http://www.haskell.org/pipermail/glasgow-haskell-users/2008-November/016239.html 6.10.3 doesn't build for me due to issues with haskeline (the Haskell readline library). I suspect there's a cabal package somewhere which isn't building correctly then silently failing. Haven't investigated further because 6.10.2 builds fine and that's good enough for my needs. I went ahead and ran the GHC regression testsuite on my built -- got a whopping 300 failures (of ~12000 test cases; 2.5%). I've only skimmed through the failure list (it's attached for your browsing pleasure) -- some of the things looks like problems on their end, some of them look like problems on my end (ie, need FreeBSD-specific patches for things like "getPermissions001", I imagine). Some of the failed tests look kind of concerning ("space_leak_001"). I've attached my current diff on the Makefile; I'll post a full diff when I've got the pkg-plist built; definitely want to have some more eyes testing it (and I still need to test it on an i386 box) to make sure nothing is completely foobar.
