GHCi and Windows 98

["Steven Tinsley"]

Good day to you.  I installed GHC 6.6 on a Windows 98 SE system recently
having decided to try to learn this language.  Unfortunetley, GHCi causes an
"This program has performed an illegal operation...." error at startup and
is shut down.  This happens just after "Loading base
package....linking....done" is shown.  Windows produces this error message:

[code]
GHC caused an invalid page fault in
module GHC.EXE at 0167:00c82e26.

Just thought you'd like to know.  Thanks.
