By the "other OS", I did mean 10.6 ..

ghc6 did have the same or similar problem under 64bit with 10.5.8
_ though not under 32bit...

So, if no bootstrap through gcc, the only way would be to try first
building ghc-7 under 32bit using ghc-6 there to bootstrap, then
using that 32bit ghc7 to try bootstrapping a 64bit ghc7 ...
Feasible ?
