New description:

 I've seen this a handful of times since the new build system was pushed.
 I'm using exclusively x86_64 systems.  The error message is
 {{{
 /usr/bin/ld: cannot find libraries/base/dist-
 install/build/GHC/Enum_split/Enum__1.p_o
 }}}
 Turning on make's debug information makes it clear that some process, I
 presume split,
 is not completing before linking occurs.

 Simply restarting the make completes the build most times (I think only
 once has
 a second error occurred and I'm not 100% that I had made no
 modifications).

 This happens on a dual-core debian system and an 8-core RHEL5.3 or
 Fedora-11 system.

 If you need make's debug output send email to gbeshers at gmail dot com,
 but I am
 hoping just adding a dependency will work.
