 When running stack build on Ubuntu 18.04 on an AWS t2-micro instance (1 GB
 RAM), I got the following error:


 {{{
 Preparing to install GHC to an isolated location.
 This will not interfere with any system-level installation.
 Downloaded ghc-8.0.2.
 Installed GHC.
 Populated index cache.
 stack: internal error: Unable to commit 16777216 bytes of memory
     (GHC version 8.2.2 for x86_64_unknown_linux)
     Please report this as a GHC bug:
 http://www.haskell.org/ghc/reportabug

 }}}

 ... After which there's no more output and stack build seems to hang. Any
 guidance here would be appreciated, thanks!
