Re: GHC >= 9.0?

Hi,

I have tentative work for packaging GHC 9.2.4 under this repository:

https://github.com/akashi-moe/akashi

It uses the Hadrian build system (also packaged) as Makefile support is being 
deprecated in future GHC versions -- the Make-based system is also super 
inconsistent in my experience.

I was able to build it with Haddocks disabled on my personal x64 machine (they 
take forever, even after letting them run overnight) but I ran into some 
oddities with `ghc` needing Linux headers to compile a basic program, but it 
could just be that I haven't specified the dependencies properly :D

There's also the case of some binaries using relative linking so the 
`validate-runpath` phase fails.
