Comment:

 The tarball contains a directory `ghc-6.10.1/dist/utils/haddock/dist-
 install/build/Haddock/`.

 I can't work out how this can happen, and I've failed to reproduce it. I'm
 going to assume that some manual tweak caused the problem, but if anyone
 can reproduce it then please reopen this ticket.

 Incidentally, here's how to make a case-sensitive file system on OS X:
 {{{
 dd if=/dev/zero bs=4096 count=1048576 of=disk.img
 hdid -nomount disk.img
 # prints /dev/disk1
 newfs_hfs -s /dev/disk1
 mkdir mnt
 mount -t hfs /dev/disk1 mnt
 }}}
