crash when using template haskell and ghc-mod

GHC crashes whenever I try to use the ghc-mod tool with even a trivial Template Haskell project. I thought it might be ghc-mod's fault, but a ghc-mod maintainer looked at the info I collected about the bug and he says its a bug in GHC.

Here's the discussion about the bug, with the relevant logs and troubleshooting so far:

Let me know if it would help to copy+paste that conversation here instead of just providing a link.
