Thank you Matt for being strict
This kind of issue have bitten me in the past e.g.
- https://gitlab.haskell.org/ghc/ghc/-/issues/22450
- https://gitlab.haskell.org/ghc/ghc/-/issues/22245
So I really welcome the change in policy

The ticket which tracks bumping the bootstrap compiler to 9.4 is

We should bump all the images and update the configure check *before*
merging changes which require a newer bootstrap compiler.
I imagine this problem has been introduced by
https://gitlab.haskell.org/ghc/ghc/-/merge_requests/10827 so I will
revert that commit for now until the relevant other parts have been
updated.

Aha. I'll do that.
You have to admit, the error message is not helpful :-). A suggestion for the
future: when bumping the minimum bootstrap compiler, it would be possible (in
the same commit) to fix configure to complain about too-early versions?
Anyway I'm now building with 9.6, and doubtless that will be fine. Thanks.

Upgrade your bootstrap compiler to >= 9.4. We have now bumped HEAD's
version to 9.8, which means that 9.4 is the earliest possible bootstrap
compiler (which `text` now takes advantage of, as you see here). I have
a patch bumping the `configure` check stewing in my 9.8 preparation
branch.
