What he means is to create something equivalent of the current
python/ruby ports. Anyone who needs ghc-6.8.x can use ghc-6.8 port and
similar for ghc-6.10. But since there are some ports which are having
issues with ghc-6.10.x, so keep ghc-6.8.x as default ghc until all ports
started to compile with ghc-6.10, and ghc-6.10 for those who are
interested in trying out new GHC.
