ghc: missing -B<dir> option
which still looks to me like it's somewhat related to linking (the assumption was that -B is used for this sort of thing - linking

The -B option to ghc tells it where the GHC base directory is. (The ghc in the public bin directory is a shell script which runs the real ghc passing -B to point to its base directory.) If you see that error, something is *very* wrong with your build tree.
