compiling via-C does not work on ppc
building ghc-6.8.2 on ppc Mac OS X 10.4 (Tiger) with "SRC_HC_OPTS += -fvia-C" (see #1845 (closed)) yields:
../compiler/ghc-inplace -H16m -O -fvia-C -keep-tmp-files -optc-O2 -package-name rts -static -I../gmp/gmpbuild -I. -#include HCIncludes.h -dcmm-lint -c Apply.cmm -o Apply.o
/tmp/ghc24131_0/ghc24131_0.s:unknown:Undefined local symbol L___DISCARD__$stub
make[1]: *** [Apply.o] Error 1
