 I just read through the ghc-users mailing list.  It appears there are some
 thorny problems in the PPC build of 6.8.1 for Mac OS 10.5.  The Intel
 build
 seems to work, or can be made to work fairly easily.  (There are at least
 two theories on how to make it work, though.)

 I have to admit, it seems a little early to do the port of 6.8.1 unless
 the port
 master wants to help debug the PPC build.

 The MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET idea is a good one.  As you say, it seems
 to have worked for the OCaml port.

 Thanks for the quick response!
