Building with GhcBootLibs=Yes doesn't work

One more note: It turns out the error message I was seeing was because
those libraries are necessary for a stage 2 build, but I only wanted a
stage 1 build anyway. Re-reading the message, this should have been
pretty clear, but I was on autopilot; perhaps the message could say
even more clearly something like "These libraries are necessary if
you're bootstrapping GHC; otherwise, try make stage=1".

Cheers,
Tim
