#4214: OSX 64bit: ghci: loadObj internal error

Comment(by gwright):
The immediate problem here is likely that 6.12.3 doesn't adjust the size
of pagezero, so all references to memory below 2GB are invalid and `mmap`
will refuse to map any memory into the requested range. The quick fix is
to add
{{{
#if defined(darwin_HOST_OS) && defined(x86_64_HOST_ARCH)
, "-pagezero_size", "0x1000"
#endif
}}}
to the bottom of `rts/package.conf.in`. In my tests, this fixes a lot of
the failing ghci tests (about 600). Many tests still fail with other
crashes after thing addition, however.
