Comment (by simonpj):

 OK so it seems likely to be something to do with 64-bit floating-point
 arithmetic.

 I wonder if it makes a difference whether you use the native code
 generator or LLVM?

 Does anyone feel able to investigate?  The program isn't very big, and has
 no dependencies other than `Prelude`.
