To be more precise the patch hits codegen limitation:

"inplace/bin/ghc-stage1" -static  -H32m -O -optc-march=i686 -opta-march=i686 
-optl-Wl,-O1 -optl-Wl,--as-needed -optl-Wl,--hash-style=gnu -Iincludes 
-Iincludes/dist -Iincludes/dist-derivedconstants/header 
-Iincludes/dist-ghcconstants/header -Irts -Irts/dist/build -DCOMPILING_RTS 
-package-name rts -dcmm-lint      -i -irts -irts/dist/build 
-irts/dist/build/autogen -Irts/dist/build -Irts/dist/build/autogen           
-O2    -c rts/PrimOps.cmm -o rts/dist/build/PrimOps.o
ghc-stage1: panic! (the 'impossible' happened)
  (GHC version 7.9.20140504 for i386-unknown-linux):
        iselExpr64(i386)
    I64[_cfk::P32 + 60] - %MO_SS_Conv_W32_W64((Hp + 4) - I32[_cfl::I32])

Does it make sense to have 64-bit alloc_limit on 32-bit box?
