Changes (by desrt):

  * difficulty:  = Unknown

Comment:

 this appears to be a problem with the debian packaging.

 when i run ghci as provided by ubuntu breezy i get the segfault.

 when i run my own self-rolled ghci on the exact same machine, there is no
 problem at all.

To reproduce this bug, write the following text to bug.hs.

 {{{
 data D = D Char deriving Show
 main = print f
 f = D 'a'
 }}}

 Start ghci, and at the prompt enter
 `:load bug.hs`, then `f`.  Instead of printing `D 'a'`, GHCi will
 segfault.

  * This bug DOES manifest on PowerPC (running Debian/sid).
  * This bug DOES NOT manifest on i386 (running Debian/sid).
  * This bug DOES manifest when bug.hs is loaded in ghci.
  * This bug DOES NOT manifest when bug.hs is compiled with ghc.
