Comment (by kencu):

 yes, that patch from Josh does fix ghc:
 {{{
 % port -v installed ghc
 The following ports are currently installed:
   ghc @9.4.4_0 (active) requested_variants='' platform='darwin 22'
 archs='arm64' date='2023-01-14T11:32:47-0800'
 }}}

 but soon after, a similar issue arises with cabal, which will likely have
 a similar fix:
