Comment (by howtonotwin):

 Further testing reveals that the issue is simply that the GHC distribution
 that created the `ghc-iserv` program used `integer-gmp` but the cross-
 compiler used `integer-simple`. Configuring the non-cross-compiling GHC to
 use `integer-simple` too fixes this. It would be nice, however, if the
 error message were more informative.
