building ghc fails out of the configure script with the following.

`--> sudo port install ghc

That's odd, /usr/bin/gcc should be linked to /usr/lib/libgcc_s.1.dylib not /usr/i686-apple-darwin8/lib/libgcc_s.1.dylib. What version of Xcode do you have installed?

2.2.1 is the version the Xcode application is reporting.

We recommend using XCode 2.4.1 or later, as the older versions all have significant issues of one sort or another.

Let us know if you still have a problem after updating Xcode. The latest portfile revision (revision 8) builds on i386/Leopard, i386/Tiger and ppc/Tiger. There is a known but not yet resolved problem that prevents building on ppc/Leopard.

Issue s resolved with Xcode 2.5. I ended up having to rebuild all the dependencies as well though.
