beHi,
I've updated our ghc-8 Haskell compiler to the latest version (8.0.2)
and in doing so I've investigated why both 8.0.1 and 8.0.2 do not work
without setting LD_LIBRARY_PATH to the required system libraries.
I've found that NIX had the same problem. The root cause for them was
that their gcc-wrapper was not able to properly handle arguments
passed through response files. I suspect that we have the same
problem.

For the moment I've borrowed a patch for GHC that they did use before
fixing the gcc-wrapper. Going forward it would probably be wise to fix
our gcc/ld wrapper as well.
Regards,
Fede
