Comment(by erikd):

 Have some time to work on this again. The problem revolves around the
 following function:

 {{{
 word64ToWord32 :: Word64 -> Word32
 word64ToWord32 (W64# x) = W32# (word64ToWord# x)
 }}}

 where `word64ToWord#` is defined in `libraries/ghc-prim/GHC/IntWord64.hs`
 as:

 {{{
 foreign import ccall unsafe "hs_word64ToWord" word64ToWord# :: Word64# ->
 Word#
 }}}

 and `hs_word64ToWord` is defined `libraries/ghc-prim/cbits/longlong.c` as:

 {{{
 HsWord   hs_word64ToWord  (HsWord64 w) {return (HsWord)   w;}
 }}}
