Probably not repeatable, but in case someone recognises it:

In the latest GHC 4.03 from CVS, compiling using ghc-4.02, and with 
GhcLibHcOpts=-DDEBUG -fno-prune-tydecls -O -fno-specialise, when it 
gets to lib/exts/Word.lhs it dies with no error message:


------------------------------------------------------------------------
==fptools== make all --no-print-directory -r;
 in /local/scratch/kw217/Builds/i386-unknown-linux/fptools-4.xx-cvs-w402
/ghc/lib/exts
------------------------------------------------------------------------
../../../ghc/driver/ghc -recomp -cpp -fglasgow-exts -fvia-C 
-Rghc-timing -DDEBUG -fno-prune-tydecls -O -fno-specialise -static  
-H12m -monly-3-regs  -c Word.lhs -o Word.o -osuf o
make[3]: *** [Word.o] Error 1
make[2]: *** [all] Error 1
make[1]: *** [all] Error 1
make: *** [all] Error 1
Make all failed; aborting...


When I change into the appropriate directory and apply the above 
command with a -v added on the end to find out where it's dying, it 
works fine.  A classic case of `it doesn't crash when I'm in the 
debugger' (s/debugger/verbose mode/ of course).

Ideas?

Thanks.
