* gnu/packages/haskell.scm (ghc-8.4)[inputs]: Use inherited inputs.
[arguments]: Rewrite using g-exps. Adjust to use inherited package
arguments. Use inherited 'unpack-testsuite, 'fix environment phases.
Remove redundant 'fix-references phase.
(ghc-8.8)[arguments]: Adjust phases based on changed inherited phases.
* gnu/packages/haskell.scm (ghc-7)[arguments]: Adjust custom 'unpack-bin
and 'unpack-testsuite-and-fix-bins phases to unpack tarballs directly
from the store.
* gnu/packages/haskell.scm (ghc-4)[arguments]: Remove #:implicit-inputs?.
In 'bootstrap' phase, pass '-optc-D_GNU_SOURCE=1'. Use
'search-input-file' to locate lib{bfd,iberty}.a, and 'which' for cpp.
Patch 'mk/config.mk.in'. In 'configure' phase, emit "config.cache".
In 'make-boot' phase, replace "CLK_TCK" in 'nHandle.c'.
[native-inputs]: Remove now-implicit inputs; remove GLIBC-2.2.5,
GCC-MESBOOT0, and BINUTILS-MESBOOT. Add GCC-2.95 and BINUTILS-2.33.
Remove input labels.
* gnu/packages/patches/nhc98-c-update.patch: New file.
* gnu/local.mk (dist_patch_DATA): Add it.
* gnu/packages/haskell.scm (nhc98)[source]: Use it.
[arguments]: Remove #:implicit-inputs?.
[native-inputs]: Remove.
This makes the derivation of ghc equivalent to that found in
e55547bf70.
* gnu/packages/haskell.scm (ghc-8.8)[native-inputs]: Change GIT to
GIT/FIXED.
(ghc-8.10)[native-inputs]: Change GIT-MINIMAL to GIT-MINIMAL/FIXED.
* gnu/packages/version-control.scm (git/fixed): New variable.
Not sure why it fails.
* gnu/packages/haskell.scm (ghc-8.10) [#:phases]: Add new conditional
phase to disable failing testcase on i686 without modifying derivation
for other architectures to avoid rebuild.
* gnu/packages/haskell.scm (ghc-8.6)[arguments]: Add phase
"remove-unnecessary-references" to remove references to build tools and
inter-output references.
This follows up commit 2e9c43aa9a, which was
incomplete. Fixes <https://bugs.gnu.org/39358>.
* gnu/packages/patches/ghc-testsuite-dlopen-pie.patch: New file.
* gnu/local.mk (dist_patch_DATA): Adjust accordingly. Also use tabs instead
of spaces on surrounding patches.
* gnu/packages/haskell.scm (ghc-8.6)[native-inputs]: Add patch for
"ghc-testsuite".
[arguments]: Remove incomplete workaround for the same issue.
Incidentally, this fixes a build failure where GHC's build processes fail to
link libffi and libgmp for 'ghc-cabal'.
* gnu/packages/haskell.scm (ghc-8.4)[inputs]: Remove BINUTILS, GCC, and
MAKE-LD-WRAPPER.
[arguments]: Adjust accordingly.
