Comment (by davidsarah):

 It's more than lame that pkgsrc (NetBSD's packaging system) fails to
 build/install GHC, which is the most commonly used implementation of a
 major programming language.
 [http://www.haskell.org/ghc/docs/6.12.2/html/users_guide/mailing-lists-
 GHC.html Complain!] (NetBSD is a "tier 2" platform for GHC development
 according to [http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/wiki/Platforms this],
 and [http://www.haskell.org/ghc/download_ghc_6_12_3.html has no binary
 distribution downloadable for NetBSD].)

 That said, we know that using darcs does raise the bar for contributions,
 so this is a valid ticket.
