I tested my patch on an old 32 bit laptop over night and it didn't work.
I think it's best to revert Simon's patch and let him fix it when he gets
chance.

It certainly doesn't break anything on a 64 bit machine,
and should fix the problem on a 32 bit machine (although I can't test that)

To be more precise the patch hits codegen limitation:

"inplace/bin/ghc-stage1" -static  -H32m -O -optc-march=i686 -opta-march=i686 
-optl-Wl,-O1 -optl-Wl,--as-needed -optl-Wl,--hash-style=gnu -Iincludes -Iincludes/dist

    -O2    -c rts/PrimOps.cmm -o rts/dist/build/PrimOps.o
ghc-stage1: panic! (the 'impossible' happened)
   (GHC version 7.9.20140504 for i386-unknown-linux):
         iselExpr64(i386)
     I64[_cfk::P32 + 60] - %MO_SS_Conv_W32_W64((Hp + 4) - I32[_cfl::I32])

Does it make sense to have 64-bit alloc_limit on 32-bit box?

Sorry about this, just validating a revert patch to fix the builds while I figure out how to fix the breakage on 32-bit machines. The alloc limit needs to be 64 bits, even on 32-bit machines.

Cheers,
Simon
