This is due to a space leak in GHC, you need about 120MB heap. :-{ Adding

   rename/ParseIface_HC_OPTS += -dcore-lint

to your fptools/mk/build.mk should cut it down to below 64MB.

Alternatively you could use the binary RPM of the latest-and-greatest
CVS snapshot (last Friday's 4.03) from

   ftp://ftp.informatik.uni-muenchen.de/pub/local/pms/

If your Linux doesn't use RPM, you can give rpm2cpio a try.
