This comes from an issue in haskell-beginner, although it have already been touched here. If you use recent versions of ghc to build a program and try the resulting binary on an old linux distro, you may get a message about timer_create receiving the wrong parameters.
For better or worse, this is something that people should not be trying in the first place, and the problem you report is a representative example of why. Taking code compiled on a new system and trying to run it on an old system will often fail due to API or ABI incompatibilities. Sometimes those failures are easy to see, as in your case; other times, they'll result in more subtle problems. The timer_create issue is a bit of a red herring. If it wasn't that, something else would probably break instead.
