Comment (by duncan):
A helpful workaround in the meantime (ie for 6.10.2) is to add a check
that if `--with-gcc=` is given, then it's exactly the same one as the
`gcc` on the `$PATH`.
Even in this case the `--with-gcc=` is not redundant because it bakes the
gcc path into ghc so that it'll use that one once installed, even if the
gcc on the path is different at that time. So the gcc on the `$PATH` only
has to be the same at build time.
