I get a segmentation fault if I do the following on OS X...
* cabal install cpphs --reinstall --force-reinstall --ghc- options=-rtsopts * cpphs +RTS -A16384 -RTS /usr/include/stdio.h
Running in gdb the stack shows we are in stg_ap_0_fast and it looks like it is trying to dereference a pointer value of 0x5000500050000 that is in the rbx register.
