Cloning and assigning to ghc.  If the way ABI is tracked in ghc is
causing valid bugs to be thrown away, that's a problem, in my opinion.

I would like to see this fixed in ghc/wheezy so the workaround can be
safely dropped in dpkg/wheezy+1.  No rush, though (i.e., it can happen
after the transition if there's no upload until then).

Thanks and hope that helps,
Jonathan
