I opened an issue on Cabal's GitHub page before reporting it here:
https://github.com/haskell/cabal/issues/2757
where I was told that "GHC Panic" is usually signifies a GHC bug.
They are right, ghc should fail with polite error message instead of a panic, but that is exactly why #9903 exists. Cabal's fault is to pass `-fhpc` to `ghci`. I sent a fix to Cabal, so closing. Thank you for reporting the issue. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/10765#comment:4 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
