[Nix-dev] non-"dynamic-only" GHC

[Taeer Bar-Yam]

Hey all,
  When I try to build GHC from source, I get the error described here: (
http://haskell.1045720.n5.nabble.com/GHC-10374-Can-t-build-GHC-with-a-dynamic-only-GHC-installation-td5808299.html).
I just used the default ghcWithPackages.
  Evidently, this is a bug that should be fixed in GHC. For now, however,
I'd like to just circumvent the issue altogether and use a
"non-dynamic-only" GHC. Can I set ghcWithPackages to use a non-dynamic-only
GHC? I'm not even sure what that means. Any help here would be appreciated.

P.S. Ultimately, my goal here is to hack on GHC. If I'm approaching this
the wrong way or there's something I'm missing, feel free to let me know.
Thanks.
