I decided to remove everything and start again with the Haskell Platform. I am 
back up and running enough to make progress.

Thanks Daniel, I will give it a try

I just did some work on the MAC to verify that everything worked there. And all 
is well with MAC GHC 6.12.1

You probably have a package.conf from the previous GHC still lying around.
If your new GHC is in the system space, it'll probably be enough to remove 
all package.conf files from the user space, if your new GHC lives in user 
space, remove all package.conf files from the user space *except the one 
ghc-6.12.2 created* (that's the one containing the package ghc-6.12.2).
