 At this point I started to suspect I might be running out of memory, so I
 quit everything except Terminal and tried again. After about an hour and a
 half it succeeded!

 Oh, OK, yeah, that would explain why it happened earlier when you were
 using parallel building. Unfortunately, there's probably very little we
 can do about this. GHC is just a large software package. Fortunately, the
 situation should improve as soon as we have a buildbot for El Capitan,
 because pre-built binaries will be available for GHC then.

 I'll close this as worksforme, because I'm not sure what I should do about
 this.
