Comment (by jwhite):

 The immediate cause is the bug described in #15075.  When that bug is
 fixed, the build still fails on `hsc2hs`:

 Note on the command line `-optl-Wl,-m64`.  The Solaris linker does not
 support an `-m64` option.  It should be `-64` instead.  After fixing that,
 the build proceeds, and eventually completes.  The following diff fixes
 it, after `autoreconf && ./configure`:

 {{{
