make install fails on master on macOS Sierra

[Mitsutoshi Aoe]

Hi Erik,

Thanks for the info. Is there a way to tell what version of Cabal was used to build GHC? I've tried the latest cabal-install from Hackage and from master on GitHub with no luck. Also the Cabal git submodule in the GHC checkout is pointed to 41f416bc2, which seems to be Cabal-2.0.0.0.

Regards,
Mitsutoshi
