I'm trying to build GHC 6.12.2 on PowerPC / MacOS 10.5.8, but stage2
compiler causes an internal error:

}}}
The stage2 compiler is built with -thread by default, so I tried building
it with -debug. As a result, the compiler caused Segmentation Fault on the
same source file. The SegFault happened at some internal function like
"s1ht_info" in "compiler/stage2/build/UniqFM.o".
