Comment (by simonpj):

 This looks serious. And it looks like it's the same as the problem I've
 been encountering when building on Window:
 http://www.haskell.org/pipermail/ghc-devs/2014-March/004189.html.  Notice
 the crash happens for me after a couple of `CPSZ` messages have come out,
 same as reported above on !StackOverflow.

 But hello-world failing is much easier to track down than GHC itself
 failing.

 Could anyone git-bisect their way to the commit that did this?

 Simon
