Summary: nativeGen/MachRegs.lhs:1016: parse error

Initial Comment:
I am attempting to build GHC 6.4.1 on AIX 5.1L using
GHC 6.2.1 as the host compiler.

Everything proceeds fine until the crash here.

I believe that the problem is that no content for the
callClobberedRegs defined for AIX.  In particular,
powerpc_TARGET_ARCH will be defined, but there is no
clause in that file for PowerPC.

I will attach a build log.

a further comment: perhaps this is a configure error --
nativeGen still isn't available on AIX, is it?

I just ran ./configure --prefix=/usr/local to start this.

Forgot to add: using GCC 4.0.3.
