So this is not the same bug as #365497 and is a different regression problem. Specifically I can verify #365497 is fixed in 6.8.2 if I build a registerised ghc from the source package and try to reproduce it : shya...@turtle:/tmp$ cat test.hs module Bug where data Test = Const Integer deriving (Show) shya...@turtle:/tmp$ ghci test.hs GHCi, version 6.8.2: http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ :? for help Loading package base ... linking ... done. [1 of 1] Compiling Bug ( test.hs, interpreted ) Ok, modules loaded: Bug. *Bug> Const 1 Const 1 *Bug> So that one was fixed a while ago but 6.8.2 was just never built registerised on powerpc...
