Summary: Segmentation fault with Template Haskell

Initial Comment:
When compiling the files attached, I get the following
output:

$ ./compile.sh 
Chasing modules from: TemplateTryOut.hs
Skipping  OHaskellPrimitives ( ./OHaskellPrimitives.hs,
./OHaskellPrimitives.o )
Skipping  Utils            ( ./Utils.hs, ./Utils.o )

./Templates.o )

TemplateTryOut.o )

./compile.sh: line 6: 23126 Segmentation fault      ghc
-fglasgow-exts --make TemplateTryOut.hs

The problem is in Templates.hs, around line 202. As
soon as you "touches" the body expression of an LetE,
the compiler crashes.

This is the GHC version I'm using:

Glasgow Haskell Compiler, Version 6.2.1, for Haskell
98, compiled by GHC version 6.2

I first thought that I might have a stage 1 compiler,
because the line above says "compiled by GHC version
6.2", but I just used the defaults when building GHC,
so it should be a stage 2 compiler.

The bug also occurs with GHC from CVS (Head, 2004-05-27).
The error message is:
