Comment:

 Any "bad magic" panics are most likely a result of mixing 32 bit and 64
 bit objects files, see #7603. The error message got much improved in #7628
 (GHC 7.8). Closing as not a ghc problem.

 @mvanier please reopen if you still encounter problems (after testing with
 GHC 7.8.3 if possible).
