This just means the runtime bytecode interpreter has fallen over,
and is largely equivalent to a seg fault.

Now that you have managed to get ghc built on your machine, you may
no longer be interested in nhc98, but I wondered if you have yet
tried the same hack you needed for ghc:

And it might also be interesting to see if you can now build nhc98
with your fresh ghc.  A success would mean I didn't need to worry
any further.
