If you are confident that your fix won't mess up the branch, and you think it's 
important that it should be in 7.6, then yes go ahead.  (Either run 'validate' 
on the branch before committing, or send the patch to Paolo instead of 
committing it, so that he can do so.)

Thanks for contributing to GHC for PowerPC.  A real help!

|  Simon,
|  
|  It turns out this patch doesn't apply cleanly to the ghc-7.6 branch.
|  
|  Ben Lippmeier recently got me git commit access to the GHC tree
|  (by sending my ssh key to Paul Heinlein at Galois). I have already
|  pushed one commit to git HEAD but I have not ventured outside the
|  master branch.
|  
|  If you like, I can get the ghc-7.6 tree working, then validate on
|  x86-64 and i386 and then push the fix. Is that ok with you?
|  
|  Cheers,
|  Erik
