Is it a problem that the latest GHC is used to build the package cache?
(Apart from being surprising and suboptimal.)

Some profile hooks, such as ‘gdk-pixbuf-loaders-cache-file’, use the
package available in the closure (gdk-pixbuf in this case) rather than
the latest version.  It’s a bit of a hack, but if required, we could do
that.
