Oh, I'm sorry, it's possible that I was using the wrong version. I
think /usr/bin/runghc is version 6.4. However, it strangely reports
being version 6.4.1:

$ /usr/bin/runghc --version
The Glorious Glasgow Haskell Compilation System, version 6.4.1.20050903
$ /usr/bin/ghc --version
The Glorious Glasgow Haskell Compilation System, version 6.4
$ ghc --version
The Glorious Glasgow Haskell Compilation System, version 6.4.1.20050903
$ runghc --version         
runghc: syntax: runghc [-f GHCPATH] [GHC-ARGS] FILE ARG...[1]$ 

When I use the newer version I am unable to reproduce the problem.

(by the way, it would be nice if --version and --help were functional
in the newer versions of runghc)

Thanks,

Frederik Eaton
