This is not actually the case, because on linux-powerpc I get errors
about Intel instructions in the same file.

This was discussed in this thread:

   http://www.haskell.org/pipermail/cvs-ghc/2012-December/079132.html

and it seems to be a build system problem as I can correctly
build the tree if I drop the "-j" argument to the "make" command.

That may be valuable.
