Comment (by mjmrotek):

 I'm getting a similar panic on Windows 8 x86_64 (latest MinGHC) from GHC
 7.10.1 when compiling the UoM Plugin (https://github.com/adamgundry/uom-
 plugin):

 [11 of 13] Compiling Data.UnitsOfMeasure.Convert (
 src\Data\UnitsOfMeasure\Convert.hs
 dist\build\Data\UnitsOfMeasure\Convert.o )
 ghc.exe: panic! (the 'impossible' happened)
   (GHC version 7.10.1 for x86_64-unknown-mingw32):
      Static flags have not been initiailised!
      Please call GHC.parseStaticFlags early enough.
