Comment (by geraint):

 Running otool only tells me about libHSinteger-gmp, specifically:

        @rpath/libHSinteger-gmp-1.0.0.1-ghc8.0.1.dylib (compatibility
 version 0.0.0, current version 0.0.0)

 but I edited an earlier comment (which apparently doesn't generate an
 email):

         "... by dint of looking at HsIntegerGmp.h I see it is 5.0.4 and
 GHC_GMP_INTREE is true, so it is the presumably the allocation bug in
 gmp."

 This is how it comes for the Mac in the current Haskell platform.
