What about using an older GHC version for your project as a temporary solution? The powerpc64 is a tier2 platform which is low priority according to platforms page https://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/wiki/Platforms#Tier2platforms It wouldn't be good to let this bug block the 8.6.1 release which was suppose to come out last august according to the project page https://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/wiki/Status/GHC-8.6.1 Maybe the milestone can be moved to a later GHC version or bug priority set to low/lowest. What do you think? -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/15623#comment:1 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
