Comment:

 This will be fixed once dynamic-by-default is enabled again:

 commit c22850f7c950009ee4de84c20dc4a6cf7c0b500f

     Enable dynamic-by-default for unregisterised arches

     This makes ghci work on platforms without any special support in the
     GHCi linker:

     Prelude> (System.Info.os, System.Info.arch)
     ("linux","s390")
