Hi!

Yi [1] contains a ncurses binding that exhibits a strange bug on 
powerpc-linux when built with GHC 6.4 using -fasm.

Attached is a not so minimal test case. The main module just import 
Yi.Curses.Curses and it seems to be sufficient to kill module 
initialisation.

$ gdb main
[...]
Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
0x1000395c in __stginit_Main_ ()

With the 6.4 -fvia-C vs ncurses bug, that means that Yi is currently 
unusable at all on powerpc-linux.

Cheers,
  Jérémy.
