ghc-pkg makes unnecessary assumptions on Solaris

There isn't a way to do this currently.  ghc-pkg's support for building
GHCi libs is just a quick hack, it doesn't try to do anything sensible
on systems which have GNU ld called something other than 'ld' (or system
which don't have GNU ld, for that matter).

Just invoke the appropriate ld command by hand.
