nix build haskell.compiler.ghcHEAD

[Rahul Muttineni]

It seems to keep failing on all sub-directories of utils/. I manually
changed

utils/*_dist-install_DEP_EXTRA_LIBS = rt util dl gmp m rt dl pthread

and the stage2 compiler built successfully after that. Has anyone else
faced this problem building the utils/* in commit 1757dd8? If so, I'll
submit a patch that adds on the 'pthread' to DEP_EXTRA_LIBS in the utils/
directory.
