Last night, I installed a rawhide version of ghc 6.10.1 in place of the F10
version I had been running. I also had packages such as ghc-X11 installed at
the time. When I ran "ghc-pkg list" after the update, the X11 and other such
packages were no longer visible.

We need to develop a mechanism to make it possible to make minor updates to ghc
without requiring that all devel packages be reinstalled afterwards :-(
