Comment:

 Thanks for testing. Fixed in 7.6 by:
 {{{
 commit 418a8c926703ac284f7b1a39900722efa02d0834
 Author: Ian Lynagh <ig...@earth.li>

     On Win64, mark executables as not supporting bigaddr; fixes #7134

     This is a kludge, and means that ghc/haddock won't be able to use
     more than 2G of RAM. But it'll make sure that ghci works in the short
     term while we work on a proper fix.

 Replying to [comment:12 awson]:
 > But after this "fix" ghc is unable to use more than 2GB of memory,
 AFAIK.

 Yes, hopefully we'll have a better fix for 7.8.
