Comment(by erikd):

 I switched from the "devel2" way of build ghc (defined in
 mk/build.mk.sample) to the "prof" way and suddenly everything built
 without any hang.

 Experimenting a little further it turns out that the important difference
 was that for "devel2" the `GhcStage2HcOpts` variable does not include
 `-fasm` so that the second stage was built un-registered.

 This raises two questsions:

 * Should the un-registered build correctly on PowerPC?

 * Should `GhcStage2HcOpts` use `-fasm`?
