Summary: can't build ghc with package depending on lang installed

Initial Comment:
When I try to build jhc with ghc and have wxhaskell
installed,
the build fails because although lang-1.0 is hidden somehow
it is exposed (by --make??) by being a dependency of the
wxcore package.

If I uninstall wxhaskell then there is no problem...
however
it is annoying having to uninstall and re-install pkgs
just to build
something.  The same problem occurs with hs-plugins
installed
(instead of wxhaskell) iirc.

I quite forgot, and making this even more relevant ;) ,
this also affects building ghc-6.4 itself...
