ghc-6.12.1rc1 on Nix: ghci does not work
After building the ghc-6.12.1 release candidate on a 32-bit Arch Linux machine using Nix, ghci fails to start with the following error:
GHCi, version 6.12.0.20091010: http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ :? for help

(GHC version 6.12.0.20091010 for i386-unknown-linux):

Please report this as a GHC bug: http://www.haskell.org/ghc/reportabug
I know that I encountered this problem before when trying to build the HEAD a couple of months before, but I didn't ever have this problem with ghc-6.10.* using Nix.
Any ideas?
