For the record, here are the crashes (not test failures) from build  
of HEAD on OS X ppc.
I will sort through them to find out how many distinct failures there  
seem to be.

Fortunately, the all knowing haskell-cafe list has explained my  
laziness to me and
thereby fixed my stack overflow woes.  Henceforth I promise to be, if  
not diligent
and hardworking, at least strict  :-)

And thanks to them I should be able to find a few moments to look at  
the crash logs.

Best,
greg
