I opened a ticket a few days ago already
https://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/8991 but no answer. I guess it's
difficult to reproduce.
In fact if I recompile HSE using your same PKGBUILD, it works fine!
I'm using llvm-3.4-1 and glibc-2.19-3. I wonder what could be different
between your build environment and mine.
Very strange!

Hi,
I already mentioned this problem earlier on this mailing list, but now I have some extra information.
It's the following (on GHCi):
Prelude> :m Language.Haskell.Exts Prelude Language.Haskell.Exts> parseFileContents "main = putStrLn \"Hello World\"" Loading package array-0.5.0.0 ... linking ... done. Loading package filepath-1.3.0.2 ... linking ... done. Loading package deepseq-1.3.0.2 ... linking ... done. Loading package old-locale-1.0.0.6 ... linking ... done.

Loading package haskell-src-exts-1.15.0.1 ... linking ... done. Illegal instruction (core dumped)
This affects everything that depends on haskell-src-exts, like hlint and stylish-haskell. The bug shows up only on my two AMD Athlon II X2 computers, but not on my other Intel Sandybridge.
I think it is related to -fllvm flag because I didn't have this bug with the 1.15.0 version, which didn't have the flag.
Can someone with similar AMD architecture try to replicate it, please?
Ouch! The reason for using LLVM is this: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/8768
So you probably should raise this as a ticket against GHC.
I hope the last comment on that ticket is correct and that it's fixed in 7.8.3.
