 Indeed, my patch does not resolve that problem, as I considered it as
 something separate from the reported bug.
 My patch only touches the built/make system, and only removes references
 to the built tree in the created libraries.
 I want to note that the problem you describe in your comment also occurs
 in the current, unpatched, version of ghc.
