Comment (by thomie):

 Replying to [comment:5 edsko]:
 > It seems `$$($1_$2_PROG_INPLACE)` is explicitly only set when `BINDIST`
 is not equal to `YES` (lines 187, 200). But then how could this work for
 anyone?

 Replying to [comment:8 darchon]:
 > `make binary-dist` also started failing for me; I don't know why it
 worked earlier...

 For posterity, this got probably broken in commit
 c6a05a72d237cba0f17ea202f7c38ca0ac54aeb7:
 {{{

     Make dynamic GHC no Windows installable too

     We need different paths in the wrapper, as teh installed tree is a
     different shape to the build tree.
