that doesn't look too good, if a little bit odd since we're compiling
3.00 on linux boxes here (2.0.30 kernels mostly.)
To make sure that this is a ghc problem, could you try repeating the
`make all' and see if you're getting the same crash? i.e., want to
make sure we're into `normal' sig 11 problems (see
http://www.bitwizard.nl/sig11/ )
