GHCi crash on simple writeFile

Windows NT sp4, ghc 5.01 "Borag Thungg"

On a simple attempt to use writeFile, the file is
correctly written, however ghc crashes immediately
afterward. The exact error message is:

The instruction at "0x00b12d58" referenced memory at
"0x00000000". The memory could not be "written".

Assigned to a null pointer, I guess.

Thanks,

Bryn
