Still working on getting my own development environment configured, I am seeing make install perform a lot of rebuilds of libraries:

However, GHC has already been built to stage 2. Why is GHC inplace/bin/stage1 being invoked here - and hasn’t this library already been built by make?

If this happens it is a bug, please open a ticket. Cheers, Simon
