Maybe 7 years ago it was relevant but it seems today it is not needed anymore.

This workaround was not needed in my tests and I found some evidence it was not needed 10 years ago either.

This workaround prevents Cabal from building complete standalone foreign libraries on Linux, which the documentation says it is not supported but it indeed works (as long as you have a GHC bindist with -fPIC).

Let's see if the CI agrees with me ☺️

LGTM, but I don't have experience with that and I don't know how to test this PR specifically.
