Comment(by gwright at macports.org):

 I will look at this, but I'm not sure if it is the right fix.  The reason
 is that perl
 is used in an assembly to assembly transformation in which white space is
 critical.  Any change,
 even a minor one, will break ghc.

 In the short term, I could make ghc depend on a perl binary (call it ghc-
 perl) that didn't
 have a name clash with a perl installed by another port.
