 Hi,

 Building GHC HEAD in Nix on Linux currently fails with linker errors. See
 https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/10752

 The problem goes away if one reverts GHC commit
 296bc70b5ff6c853f2782e9ec5aa47a52110345e.

 I don't know what the issue is, and I can't be 100% sure it's really a GHC
 problem and not a Nix one, but I thought it best to record this here.
