Subject: [PATCH] Got the build system to use specific versions of some
 packages

Eventually we should probably do this for all packages, but we certainly need it for base on GHC 6.10 (this avoids dealing with some other things, such as base being split up), and I needed it for QuickCheck too, since something had installed the latest version.
