It's only used when it needs to do something for which the CPU lacks support so a call to an emulation is used instead of trying to generate native code for it. Maybe you got lucky and ghc doesn't actually need it in its C bits. Or maybe it'll explode only when there's a full moon in Scorpio and Mars is ascendant. :/ (Well, when some rarely used operation happens to need something that x86_64 needs help with. I don't think there are many of those --- which means it's going to be an even rarer explosion.)--brandon s allbery kf8nh sine nomine associatesunix, openafs, kerberos, infrastructure, xmonad http://sinenomine.net
