Comment:

 I just verified that the patch quoted above is not sufficient to build GHC
 on Snow Leopard.  Validate dies on the first file that the stage1 compiler
 tries to compile.  (BTW, GHC does not run in 64 bit mode on SL.  It's just
 that the Apple's compiler tool chain builds 64 bit binaries by default.)
