I've since modified sp to add a main-is which prevents the panic and replaces it with a complaint about Main e.g.

  runghc -i.haskell_cache/http_searchpath.org-default.map.cache -main-is 
HAppS.Protocols.HTTP.FileServer.main 
.haskell_cache/http_searchpath.org-default.map.cache/HAppS/Protocols/HTTP/FileServer.hs
 --http-port=7000

  <interactive>:1:211:
    Failed to load interface for `Main':
      Use -v to see a list of the files searched for.

How to reproduce:

$ curl http://searchpath.org/searchpath/SearchPath.hs > SearchPath.hs
$ ghc --make SearchPath.hs -o sp
$ ./sp -f runghc --sp HAppS.Protocols.HTTP.FileServer --http-port=7000

searchpath will download all the needed modules and calls out to shell to run this: runghc -i.haskell_cache/http_searchpath.org-default.map.cache .haskell_cache/http_searchpath.org-default.map.cache/HAppS/Protocols/HTTP/FileServer.hs --http-port=7000

which produces the following error:

 ghc-6.6: panic! (the 'impossible' happened)
   (GHC version 6.6 for i386-apple-darwin):
         ByteCodeFFI.mkMarshalCode_wrk(x86) L_

 Please report this as a GHC bug:  http://www.haskell.org/ghc/reportabug

Replacing runghc above with ghci causes a similar panic but because it tells you what module it is processing, implies that it is being killed by something in Data.Binary.Builder
