Can't build HEAD with the old build system

[Ömer Sinan Ağacan]

I just updated a few-days-old repo and `make` no longer works:

    $ make
    ===--- building phase 0
    make --no-print-directory -f ghc.mk phase=0 phase_0_builds
    make[1]: Nothing to be done for 'phase_0_builds'.
    ===--- building phase 1
    make --no-print-directory -f ghc.mk phase=1 phase_1_builds

I tried a custom build.mk and with no build.mk, got the same error either way.

I also tried to build with hadrian and it worked.

Is anyone here able to build with the old build system? If this is about my
system, any ideas what might be the problem?
