GHC962 fails to build using pkgsStatic

[FPtje]

Describe the bug

• On nixpkgs-unstable revision 0b07d49
• Build pkgsStatic.haskell.packages.ghc962.ghc
• Find that this fails on both X86_64-linux and ARM64-linux.

Build logs, note that the ARM build and one of the x86_64-linux builds are on revision d2b5232. I only re-did one build with the latest nixpkgs to save some time.

Found while building this flake: https://github.com/FPtje/GLuaFixer/tree/fp/update-flake-lock

Expected behavior

A successful build. GHC 9.4 has been doing swimmingly, at least on previous revisions.

Notify maintainers

I think @nh2 would be a good person to ask for advice on next steps. I'm not familiar with the static build internals of Nix, nor the build specifics of GHC in Nix. Is this a Nixpkgs issue, or a GHC issue?

I found this related issue, which has a similar error message about a file not being produced: https://gitlab.haskell.org/ghc/ghc/-/issues/21807, which seemed to be more of an issue of using the build system.

[bgamari]

Indeed it seems likely that this is a Hadrian (the GHC build system) bug (particularly in its binary distribution preparation logic). Unfortunately, I've found it very hard to debug, or even reproduce outside of nixpkgs.
