I've made a minor change to GHC, and before submitting a PR, I'd like to
validate the change. But I don't really know how to interpret the output
of the `validate` script. Mine runs for about 40 minutes and then ends
in an error:
# We are installing wrappers to programs by searching corresponding
# wrappers. If wrapper is not found, we are attaching the common wrapper
# to it. This implementation is a bit hacky and depends on consistency
# of program names. For hadrian build this will work as programs have a
# consistent naming procedure.
if [ -L wrappers/ghc ]; then echo "ghc is a symlink"; fi
ghc is a symlink
cp: target 'dir/bin/ghc' is not a directory
make: *** [Makefile:197: install_wrappers] Error 1

I'm in the process of trying `validate` on a fresh checkout, but at 40
minutes per shot, I feel like I might be on the wrong track. Should I
just create a merge request and rely on CI for the validation?
Or do something else?
