Build entirely broken

[Simon Peyton Jones]

Panic over.  Removing the entire build tree and starting again solved it. I have no idea what the original problem was.

Sorry for false alarm

|  I wonder if this could be a problem with your tree? I just did
|  
|      git pull
|      git submodule update --init
|      make distclean
|      ./boot
|      ./configure
|      make
|  
|  and it worked. Note that I tried with "quick" build flavor.
