Comment(by gwright@…):

 Ugh.  The ghc makefile system is OK, but the problem is in the internal
 cabal used to build the libraries.  It ignores the top level environment
 variable and configure settings, and goes off scouring the PATH for
 plausible binaries.  This will have to be fixed by patching all of the
 cabal configure statements.  The patches are just modifications of the
 ones used by the cabal_configure_debug variant, but this kind of crap
 ought not to be happening.
