 Can we have this small patch to lang/ghc/patches,
 so, at least, configure goes okay again for now:

 lang/ghc does not detect perl anymore during configure:
 
 checking for perl... /obj/lang/ghc/work/.tools/bin/perl
 configure: error: your version of perl probably won't work, try

 *** Error code 1
