[Bug 56516] backport of ghc 6.4.2 - fixes some annoying bugs

[Ketil Malde]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: ghc6

The current Dapper version of ghc6 (6.4.1) has some annoyances related
to package handling - e.g. building cabalized libraries with profiling
doesn't work.  Currently, this means that I must manually install new
versions of Cabal and central libraries to get an adequate system.  I
believe 6.4.2 fixes this and many other issues, while being very
backwards compatible.

Thus, although for myself I'll probably switch to Edgy when it
stabilizes, I think it would be a good idea to have 6.4.2 available for
Dapper as well.

** Affects: ghc6 (Ubuntu)
