If I'm understanding right, this adds a GHC-only patch to fix a couple
of typos. Thanks you for your many typo fixes, but in the case of
submodules this sort of patch should be sent upstream instead; that way
less effort is needed overall, and there is no chance that the patches
will be lost when we resync with upstream. We only make GHC-only patches
when they are necessary to keep the build working.


Thanks
Ian
