I was trying to push a darcs patch when it failed with a GHC error. This is the text of the error message on the console:

darcs: internal error: evacuate: strange closure type 536064 (GHC version 7.6.2 for x86_64_unknown_linux) Please report this as a GHC bug: http://www.haskell.org/ghc/reportabug Aborted (core dumped)

Not sure if this is exactly what is required when reporting a bug, I am very new to this and am unsure of the procedures involved regarding GHC bug reporting.

Thanks in advance.
