Can't build HEAD with the old build system

[Ömer Sinan Ağacan]

Yeah I can reproduce it reliably. I tried a few `git clean -xfd`s, and tried
with no build.mk and with a debug build.mk, it happened with all configurations,
when building the same file (the hsc2hs executable).

The repro is simple: clone the GHC repo, build at 6f7115dfd4. If this doesn't
reproduce the bug then I don't know what else to try.

How do I check this? Maybe gold.ld produces a corrupt ELF file during the build,
and then tries to read it to link an executable.
