The package for ghc version 8.4.2 has been built with dtrace support, sadly
this results in a GHC that cannot be used to bootstrap another compiler. For
that reason 8.4.2 should be build with the `--disable-dtrace` configure flag
which was introduced as a workaround in 8.4.2. (see
https://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/15040).

I currently have a patch in review that hopefully fixes this issue altogether.
