Comment(by tmcdonell):

 Replying to [comment:3 joeyadams]:
 > What happens if you compile with `-threaded` ?  ghci uses the threaded
 RTS.  Compiling with `ghc`, by default, does not use the threaded RTS.
 `threadDelay` follows a much different code path with `-threaded` than
 without.

 Works fine compiled with "ghc -threaded", both i386 and x86_64 on 7.6.1.
