Sorry. Forgot to ask the next question on this process. Now that I have unregistered compiler, how do I build the registered one?

I've tried to start with new tree and then run

./configure --with-ghc=T/ghc/compiler/ghc-inplace make

Yes, that should do it. Except that x86_64 doesn't have support for object splitting yet, so you need to add a file mk/build.mk with the line:

SplitObjs=NO

to turn off splitting.

For some reason that I don't quite understand, it seems from the error message that you posted the compiler is attempting to generate code for -split-objs, which is causing the assembler to fall over. Turning off splitting should fix that anyway.

That did the trick. Now I have the ghc on x86_64. Thank you for help! -- Minds, like parachutes, function best when open
