[Haskell-cafe] GHC 6.4.1 x86-64 does not compile

[Dusan Kolar]

Hello all,

  I've install "universal binary" for x86_64 of GHC 6.4.1. The 
installation was done on AMD dual core machine. Uname for the machine gives:

Linux <machine name> 2.6.16.5 #1 SMP Thu Apr 13 09:08:22 CEST 2006 
x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

While ghci was running some tests well, the ghc ended compilation with a 
long list of errors starting like this:

Chasing modules from: queen-main
Compiling QueensDK         ( ./QueensDK.hs, ./QueensDK.o )

...

The list is quite long. I've truncated it.

Well, OK, the x386 version is running, but it won't compile GHC-6.4.2 
and, moreover, it's not optimized for the HW. ;-)

Is there any way out, or what may I be doing wrong way?
