 We are missing a call to `include-dependencies` for the RTS somewhere in
 the build system.  This means that changes in RTS headers aren't forcing
 the appropriate source files to be recompiled, which can lead to strange
 crashes when pulling patches and rebuilding.  If stage2 segfaults for you,
 it might be a good idea to try

 {{{
 cd rts; make clean; cd ..; make
 }}}
