Comment:
I couldn't reproduce this.
Note that you should make changes in `mk/build.mk`, not `mk/config.mk.in`
(see [wiki:Building/Using#Buildconfiguration] for more info), and it
shouldn't be necessary to set `GHC_PACKAGE_PATH` in order to build GHC.
If you're still having problems, could you please reopen and clarify why
you're setting `GHC_PACKAGE_PATH` and which packages you have installed
where?
