GHC Head broken when TNTC not used

[David Terei]

Hi all and Simon,

OK this is the patch that breaks GHC when TablesNextToCode isn't used:

Tue Mar 30 01:44:56 EST 2010  Simon Marlow <marlowsd at gmail.com>
  * New implementation of BLACKHOLEs

Specifically this patch causes anything compiled by the ghc-stage1
compiler to segfault in 'stg_bh_upd_frame_info ()'.

Cheers,
David
