HEAD not building on OS X

[Nicolas Frisby]

in rts/ghc.mk, I changed the rts/libs.depend rule to this:

# collect the -l and -L flags that we need to link the rts dyn lib.


rts/libs.depend : $$(ghc-pkg_INPLACE)
        "$(ghc-pkg_INPLACE)" --simple-output field rts extra-libraries \
          | sed -E 's/([^ ]+)/-l\1/g' > $@
        "$(ghc-pkg_INPLACE)" --simple-output field rts library-dirs \
          | sed -E 's/([^ ]+)/-L\1/g' >> $@


seemed to work for me.

The old pattern used \+ with -e, which some sleuthing shows isn't supported
on OS X.

HTH.
