Hi Ross.

For the record I've CC'ed GHC bugs due to the error message below, although
as you are dealing with foreign calls it could easily be the results of bugs
in the library interface rather than the compiler.  At the moment I am
unable to go probing into this problem I'm sorry.

Similar results as yesterday with a fresh up-to-date source tree.  An
additional observation is that there are inconsistent results from one run
to the next of Tests.exe which suggests to me as a first hypothesis that
some memory is not being initialised:

--------------------------------------------------------------------
$ ./Tests
Tests.exe: internal error: stg_ap_p_ret
