Following up on this...

The relevant excerpt from the make --debug log seems to be

  Successfully remade target file `all_compiler_stage1'.
   File `all_compiler' does not exist.
     File `all_compiler_stage2' does not exist.
       File `all_compiler_stage2_v' does not exist.
         File `compiler/stage2/build/libHSghc-7.7.20130407.a' does not exist.

Apparently all_compiler depends on all_compiler_stage2 currently,
which it should not, given $(Stage1Only)=="YES".

Let's see if I can fix it.

Cheers,
