Comment (by kgardas):

 So basically you try to cross-compile using registerised GHC? If so, then
 I'm afraid nobody hacked LLVM to support GHC specific calling convention
 on ARM64 yet! If unregisterised, then you IMHO you should not be in this
 part of code which is IMHO just for registerised builds. Also if you
 attempt unregisterised, I would advice to use gcc and not llvm i.e.
 -fvia-C and not -fllvm for the start.
