improve error message for build on noexec-mounted device
i was building (in a sandbox) on a ramdisk that was accidentally mounted with the noexec flag. for example during the install of vector, you get an error like
Loading package primitive-0.5.4.0 ... <command line>: can't load .so/.DLL for: somepath/.cabal-sandbox/lib/x86_64-linux-ghc-7.8.4/primitive-0.5.4.0/libHSprimitive-0.5.4.0-ghc7.8.4.so (somepath/.cabal-sandbox/lib/x86_64-linux-ghc-7.8.4/primitive-0.5.4.0/libHSprimitive-0.5.4.0-ghc7.8.4.so: failed to map segment from shared object)
relevant output of mount:
none on somepath type tmpfs (rw,nosuid,nodev,noexec,relatime,gid=103,user=lspitzner)
this is by far no minimal test-case, but i hope my description of the problem is sufficient. if not, i can provide verbose output for my or other test-cases.
