Bug#1015733: ghc: ABI reproducibility broken in 9.0.2

Hi all,

Haskell ABI reproducibility is broken in ghc 9.0.2.  If you rebuild the
ghc-9.0.2-3 package repeatedly, the library packages that it provides (e.g.,
libghc-array-dev, libghc-base-dev, etc.) will have different hashes.

Making this RC because it makes it impossible to rebuild the ghc package
without rebuilding all 1000+ Haskell packages at the same time.

Ping. Can this please be looked at? This is affecting more and more packages that can't migrate to testing (and I [Release Team hat on] don't want ghc in testing with this bug).
