Improve error message when mixing 32bit and 64bit images
Since we know when the user has mixed 32 and 64 bit images, let's say so in the error message. Before:
Loading object (static) dist/build/HOC_cbits.o ... ghc: dist/build/HOC_cbits.o: Bad magic. Expected: feedfacf, got: feedface.
ghc: panic! (the 'impossible' happened)
(GHC version 7.6.1 for x86_64-apple-darwin):
loadObj "dist/build/HOC_cbits.o": failed
Please report this as a GHC bug: http://www.haskell.org/ghc/reportabug
After:
Loading object (static) dist/build/HOC_cbits.o ... ghc-stage2: Could not load image dist/build/HOC_cbits.o: bad magic!
Expected feedfacf (64bit), got feedface (32bit).
ghc-stage2: panic! (the 'impossible' happened)
(GHC version 7.7.20130124 for x86_64-apple-darwin):
loadObj "dist/build/HOC_cbits.o": failed
Patch to come.
