Even building as 32 bit would have shaken out a bug in the format specifiers
to the debugBelch statement.
Are you on Linux? I use a 32 bit debian chroot on my otherwise 64 bit Debian
system.

That would be an improvement, but it doesn't help for other OSes like Aix
and Solaris or other CPUs.
I also noticed that patch bypassed Phabricator. I assume that was a mistake. I've
done it myself. We need to be particularly careful with the RTS code because
its so fragile. It needs to be build and tested on a wide variety of systems.
