Summary: Win GHC 6.4.1 crashes while building FastPackedString

Initial Comment:
GHC 6.4.1, tried on Win2K and WinXP. To reproduce install GHC 6.
4.1 from the MSI, download the FastPackedString source code from 
darcs and build it according to instructions. 

Configure goes through but the build phases crashes with a memory 
access error.

The same occurs when building hsql-1.6. 

HSQL can be downloaded from 
http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?

Please follow the standard building procedure for FPS. The library is 
cabalized. I cannot attach the exact source code that makes GHC crash 
but it happens at the build step.
