make install fails in 8.5
On a fresh clone of GHC's master [ 79c4f10e ].
The following steps
./boot
./configure
make -j6
make install
Fail at the install phase with
"inplace/bin/ghc-cabal" copy libraries/ghc-prim dist-install "strip" '' '/usr/local' '/usr/local/lib/ghc-8.5.20180503' '/usr/local/share/doc/ghc-8.5.20180503/html/libraries' 'v p dyn'
Installing library in /usr/local/lib/ghc-8.5.20180503/ghc-prim-0.5.2.0
dist-install/build/HSghc-prim-0.5.2.0.o: copyFile: does not exist (No such file or directory)
ghc.mk:996: recipe for target 'install_packages' failed
make[1]: *** [install_packages] Error 1
No HSghc-prim-0.5.2.0.o has been built, indeed, but a libHSghc-prim-0.5.2.0.a exists. I don't know if it's relevant.
