make install (at git ef017944) still fails

I think the last time make install worked for me was sometime in February or March 2013. The build succeeds but make install fails.

mk/build.mk:

BuildFlavour = perf
V = 0

Steps to reproduce:

$ perl boot
$ ./configure --prefix=/tmp/ghc/7.7.20130827
$ make
$ make install
[...]
Installing library in
/tmp/ghc/7.7.20130827/lib/ghc-7.7.20130827/haskell2010-1.1.1.0

--global-package-db
"/tmp/ghc/7.7.20130827/lib/ghc-7.7.20130827/package.conf.d" update
