   We need to know which command is causing the ';' unexpected errors.
 Perhaps try running make with -d?

 (Simultaneously to Christian...) I have run {{{ make -d }}}. It is not
 completely clear where the ';' message comes from, however it looks as if
 the error shows whenever a file {{{ .depend }}} is read in, and when
 reading {{{ rts/ghc.mk }}}.
 (And seems there is no dtruss available on this machine, sorry)

   Regarding the sed problem we need to know whether we have introduced a
 dependency on a particular sed extension, and if so, which sed command is
 to blame.

 Unfortunately, I cannot reproduce this one any more, since I installed my
 own sed.
 Both the old log file which I have kept, and Christian's log, show that
 the stage-1 compiler is invoked without {{{ -XCPP }}} which is the
   [...] "missing preprocessor support in the stage-1 compiler" [...]
 This is the -very long- line no. 4466 in the attached log.gz. In my later
 build with the new sed, the option {{{ -XCPP }}} is added. This is of
 course only a symptom of the stage-1 compiler being built without cpp
 support. The stage-2 compiler, if any was buildable, would also not have
 cpp support.
