Committed a workaround to lang/ghc94. I hope it can avoid the panic. You
can remove the workaround simply by deleting lang/ghc94/hacks.mk.

This is an obvious blocker for me for making 9.4.4 the default.
I propose to either revert to the last version or make the default GHC
version setable.
I wish I could do the latter, but unfortunately not all Haskell
packages are buildable with 2 major versions of GHC at the same time
(most are, but there are a few exceptions).
Alternatively, I think I can patch GHC 9.4 so that it won't use
timerfd. It appears to be an optional feature after all; if its
./configure doesn't find timerfd it won't use it. Let me try that.
If it's possible to only do this on NetBSD 10.99, that would be good.
Yeah I did exactly that.
It seems so far, from not really paying attention, that there is nothing
wrong with ghc but that there is a bug in the kernel. It would also
be good to get a reproduction recipe without haskell.
Yes of course no userland code should be able to crash the kernel :D
