Hadrian questions

[Alec Theriault]

Worth noting that Hadrian additionally defines a set of so-called phony targets for packages and executables, so `./hadrian/build.sh --freeze1 build/stage1/bin/ghc` can also be expressed independently from your build root as `./hadrian/build.sh --freeze1 stage2:exe:ghc-bin`.

It would seem not (I haven't tested), because running `make 2` builds only the compiler, not the libraries. Can this workflow be replicated in Hadrian?

(Please don't tell me that the global package database is bad for my health. I know that, and I know why, but it's still terribly convenient, and I'm happy to pay the occasional price for that convenience.)
