Comment:

 Hopefully this patch fixed it:

 {{{
 Sun Aug 31 15:01:45 PDT 2008  Duncan Coutts <duncan <at> haskell.org>
   * Use a hopefully more robust method of determining the gcc version
 }}}

 We now call `gcc -dumpversion` rather than interpreting the output of `gcc
 --version`. I've checked `gcc -dumpversion` on all the platforms I have
 access to (including debian, ubuntu and solaris) and it produces
 consistent results.

Comment (by igloo):

 A related problem is bindists:

 For GHC, we want to put files like
 {{{
 dist/build/libHSbase-4.0.a
 }}}
 in bindists, so that to install a bindist we can just run (more or less)
 "Setup install". However, we don't want to include files that don't get
 installed like
 {{{
 dist/build/Data/String.o
 }}}
 as that bloats the bindist size, so we can't just include the whole
 `dist/` directory. Currently we break the abstraction and pick out the
 files that we want when creating the bindists, but it would be nice to be
 able to ask Cabal what files it needs to use in order to do the
 installation.

 Why not just construct the bindist from the result of `Setup copy
 --destdir=image` ?

 That puts paths into wrapper scripts, `package.conf`, etc.
