Comment (by kolmodin):
Right. Given the three options; I think these are the results from our
perspective;
* You do the normalisation, which means work for you to keep up
* Close as wont-fix means that we have to do it instead. Or, we could
hack the ebuilds not to use {{{econf}}} but rather call {{{./configure}}}
ourselves.
* Using {{{--ghc-{host,build,target}}}} would mean the problem goes away
as far as I know
I think option 2 and 3 looks most attractive.
With option 3, what could the consequences be? Would things break for
other people?
