Hello-

I am having a bit of trouble running GHCi on my GNU/Linux distribution and was
referred to this mail address by the crash message:

Please report it as a compiler bug to glasgow-haskell-bugs@xxxxxxxxxxx,
or http://sourceforge.net/projects/ghc/.

I believe this one has been fixed post-6.4.1, so the fix will be in 6.4.2. Revision 1.209 of ghc/rts/Linker.c is the relevant commit, which has been merged into the 6.4 branch.

Cheers,
Simon
