Comment (by guest):

 The lines
 {{{
 Using built-in specs.
 Target: powerpc-unknown-linux-gnu
 }}}
 in the out-of-the-box config.log come after
 {{{
 configure:3236: gcc -v </dev/null >&5
 }}}
 --- perhaps it is worth while making sure that GHC does not try to target
 a different machine than the gcc it uses?  ;-)

 There amy already be something in the direction:
 {{{
 configure:3357: checking whether we are cross compiling
 configure:3359: result: no
 }}}
 but obviously it does not catch this case.
