Replying to kencu:
So somebody might someday take on the project of leveraging my ghc-for-older-systems repository to allow stack and ghc to work again on SnowLeopard, or perhaps some other method of making it work that doesn't involve my ghc for SnowLeopard builds might be found. But for now, and probably forever, ghc / stack / cabal do not work on SnowLeopard on MacPorts. They can work manually when installed from my repos, with "some assembly required", if you really want pandoc, or some similar ghc-only port, on SnowLeopard.
If you could find your patches to source code, I will try making it work in Macports on SL Intel (because I need that fixed for Intel to begin with, in order to fix PPC).

there you go. That, and the prebuilt tools you can download from my github
https://github.com/kencu/ghc-for-older-darwin-systems
will get you going (after a suitable investment of time learning how ghc builds).

Thank you very much! Greatly appreciated.
