As reported when 6.4 first came out:

C:\temp>ghci Toast.hs
   ___         ___ _
  / _ \ /\  /\/ __(_)
 / /_\// /_/ / /  | |      GHC Interactive, version 6.4, for Haskell 98.
/ /_\\/ __  / /___| |      http://www.haskell.org/ghc/
\____/\/ /_/\____/|_|      Type :? for help.

Loading package base-1.0 ... linking ... done.
Compiling Toast            ( Toast.hs, interpreted )
Ok, modules loaded: Toast.
*Toast> test
Loading package Win32-1.0 ... <interactive>: Not x86 PEi386
ghc.exe: panic! (the `impossible' happened, GHC version 6.4):
        loadObj: failed

Please report it as a compiler bug to glasgow-haskell-bugs at haskell.org,
or http://sourceforge.net/projects/ghc/.


*Toast>

where Toast.hs is:

module Toast where {

    import Graphics.Win32;
   
    test = messageBox hWND_TOPMOST "Hello" "World" mB_OK;

}
