N.B. everybody, you also need to patch /usr/bin/hsc2hs to read:

    exec /Library/Frameworks/GHC.framework/Versions/610/usr/lib/ghc-6.10.4/hsc2hs \
        $tflag $HSC2HS_EXTRA --cflag="-m32" --lflag="-m32" ${1+"$@"} "$Iflag"

if you want FFI to work. See details on
http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/3400#comment:9.
