So you=E2=80=99re not building with Guix, right?

To start with, you could try to find out why /usr/bin/find reports
non-existent directory (above), possibly by checking previous messages
in the build log.  This could be because our cross-compiler somehow
failed before, and that error was silently ignored by GHC=E2=80=99s build
system, for instance.  Or it could be a GHC issue.
