ghc panic with mutually recursive modules and template haskell
When compiling the files below using ghc --make Main.hs I get the following error:
[1 of 5] Compiling ModuleA[boot] ( ModuleA.hs-boot, nothing )
[2 of 5] Compiling ModuleC ( ModuleC.hs, ModuleC.o )
[3 of 5] Compiling ModuleB ( ModuleB.hs, ModuleB.o )
Loading package base ... linking ... done.
Loading package template-haskell ... linking ... done.
ghc-6.6: panic! (the 'impossible' happened)
(GHC version 6.6 for powerpc-apple-darwin):
