the GHC package declares support for x86 and x86-64 on Linux only,
because we don’t have a bootstrap path for the Hurd (there are
no prebuilt binaries) and the Hurd is not officially supported by
upstream. Unless someone puts some effort into that I doubt it’ll ever
run on that platform.

I don’t see `target-x86-64?` being defined on master and I assume you
meant `target-x86-32?`, right?

Cheers,
