Comment (by cal@…):

 Error seems to be
 {{{
 :info:build /usr/bin/ranlib: object: libraries/terminfo/dist-
 boot/build/libHSterminfo-0.4.0.0.a(Base.o) malformed object (unknown load
 command 3)
 }}}

 You could try installing the cctools port, which should provide a newer
 ranlib, which hopefully doesn't have the problem. I'm probably not going
 to attempt fixing the GHC build on 10.6, especially because (a) I don't
 have a 10.6 system and (b) I'm working on upgrading GHC to 8.x and would
 rather get that done than spending time on debugging old versions.
