 {{{
 I just installed the 64bit version of ghc on an athlon
 64.  ghc does work and produces correct 64bit code, but
 ghci fails to start.

 Here is the complete output:

 [phil@athlon64 ~]$ ghci
    ___         ___ _
   / _ \ /\  /\/ __(_)
  / /_\// /_/ / /  | |      GHC Interactive, version
 6.2.2, for Haskell 98.
 / /_\\/ __  / /___| |      http://www.haskell.org/ghc/
 \____/\/ /_/\____/|_|      Type :? for help.

 Loading package base ... /usr/lib64/ghc-6.2.2/HSbase.o:
 unknown architecture
 ghc-6.2.2: panic! (the `impossible' happened, GHC
 version 6.2.2):
         loadObj: failed

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

 I'm using Fedora Core 3 and installed ghc using yum.

Comment:

 closing feature request, this is now complete apart from the static data
 problem for which there is a bug (#781) open.
