Comment (by simonpj):

 Thanks for the recipe.

 Alas, it works fine for me, when I tried with HEAD.  I followed those
 exact steps, except that you didn't supply the patch to use in the second-
 last file, so I just modified `Data.List` by adding and exporting a couple
 of new functions. (I suppose it is just about possible that the exact
 patch is important.)

 Then when I typed `make` (still in `libraries/base`) it re-built the base-
 library just fine.

 NB: I did not add `build.mk` because that's not in the recipe above.

 This is all on Linux.  What architecture are you on?  Does it reproduce
 for you on Linux?

 The first few lines of output after the final `make` look like this. Same
 for you?
