 I see the following program often segfaults when compiled and run like
 this:

 {{{
 % ghc -threaded -O2 -prof -fprof-auto segfault.hs -rtsopts
 [1 of 1] Compiling Main             ( segfault.hs, segfault.o )
 Linking segfault ...
 % ./segfault aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa +RTS -hr -N5 -V -A512K
 # Segfaults, often within a minute.
 }}}

 It also seems to me that it segfaults more often/quickly when some other
 process is actively running on the same machine. I kept "ghc -e 'last
 [1..]' +RTS -A13G" running while making the test case. The machine I used
 has 4 cores, 8 HT threads and 16GB RAM.
