Comment (by gparent):

 I'm sorry, I didn't phrase this correctly. The .hi files weren't in the
 package I downloaded, they were remnants from an earlier compile of the
 package that I did myself.

 So what happened is, I compiled readline-1.0.1.0 for version god-knows-
 what, and then I tried rebuilding it with a newer GHC version, without
 cleaning, and I ran into those .hi related errors. No 64-bit involved in
 the entire process. Just different GHC versions after a package upgrade.
 runhaskell Setup.hs clean (or if that doesn't work, rm -rf dist), then
 rebuilding, fixed the problem.
