bug#52198: [PATCH] gnu: ghc: Fix build on i686-linux.

[Lars-Dominik Braun]

Hi zimoun,

I locally built ghc@8.10 and this test indeed fails without/succeeds
with the patch. There’s also an issue over at the GHC tracker
about this failure, so I’m assuming it’s safe to skip:
https://gitlab.haskell.org/ghc/ghc/-/issues/17300

I pushed this patch to core-updates-frozen as
afc4945d44aeb6750b980abddbfda66f6ccb6b18. Thank you!

Cheers,
Lars

I have compiled some ghc-* packages for i686 in order to check and
until now, everything is ok.  Let the CI rebuild everything and then
fix case per case; hoping this failing test about 'quasiquotation'
would not lead to reveal breakage of leaves.
