Hello!  Remember that I've been seeing segfaults on Debian's 6.8.2.  I
tracked down the problem to my "deliterate" patches -- if I pull the one
that turns HashedIO.lhs into HashedIO.hs, for example, suddenly GHC
segfaults when compiling HashedIO.o.  This doesn't just affect HashedIO,
if I obliterate that patch, another deliterated file segfaults.  WTF!?

I installed a filthy, non-standard GHC 6.8.3 package yesterday, and the
problem went away.  Since this problem doesn't affect cabal builds, I
choose not to care about it.
