[Haskell-cafe] Question about updating GHC on MacOS

[Alp Mestanogullari]

I don't think so. However, you can install the OS X binaries for ghc 7.6.2
and make that sit just next to your Haskell Platform install. You can even
use your existing cabal-install to install packages for the freshly
installed ghc by doing 'cabal install foo --with-ghc=/path/to/ghc'. Just
watch which ghc does become the default (it's a matter of replacing a
symlink) and that it satisfies you.
