Comment(by guest):

 I did a bit more digging and it seem this issue has been discussed on the
 GHC list:

 http://www.haskell.org/pipermail/glasgow-haskell-
 users/2012-January/021717.html

 No definitive answer, though. Since the GHC people require XCode >= 4.1, I
 looked into obtaining that for 10.6. The current 4.3 is Lion-only, but it
 seems that 4.0 - 4.2 for 10.6 were available at some point as a payed App
 Store download, but have since been removed. I read in multiple places it
 should be available on the developer site, but only shows up if you have a
 payed developer program subscription. It does not show up with my free
 membership.

 The above being correct, it would appear that the only supported way to
 get the 2012 HP working on 10.6 is having a 99USD developer program
 subscription. A workaround would be greatly appreciated, but I understand
 if there is a lack of interest / resources for 10.6. In this case, please
 just update the HP website with a note clarifying the situation. Thanks!
