nofib/real/compress2 fails with the same message, for us.
We haven't investigated.  Perhaps it's the same bug.

| Subject: strange Prelude.chr bug
| 
| 
| I have a program (a compiler in fact) that, when compiled with hbc
| or nhc98, gives the following (correct) output at runtime:
| 
|     Couldn't simplify the context ((_161) _160).
|     Possible sources for the problem are:4:19
| 
| but when compiled with ghc-4.06, it gives the output/error message:
| 
|     Fail: Prelude.chr: bad argument
| 
| Now first, there is no Haskell'98 function Prelude.chr, and second,
| my program does not use *any* function called chr.  So what might be
| going on?
| 
| Regards,
|     Malcolm
