Perhaps this is a solution that it outside of the normal package
management workflow, but wouldn't this work:
1. Download and compile GHC 6.8.3 for Ubuntu from here:
http://www.haskell.org/ghc/download_ghc_683.html#x86linux
2. Compile the small number of Haskell dependencies for darcs for 6.8.3.
3. Compile darcs for Ubuntu using the above.
4. Post the resulting binary somewhere, maybe as package managed outside
of the official Ubuntu repos.
###
Am I missing something about the feasibility of this? Surely there are
GHC contributors who are already running at least 6.8.3 on Ubuntu.
