I hereby award you the title of GHC Build System Meister.  I would never have 
found this in a million years, but your patch indeed solves the problem.  Thank 
you.

(Mind you, all is not yet well, as my next message shows.)

| 
| Hi all,
| 
| I have a fix for this. It seems that just recently (since
| bd8f7fc56b84369f4e820263c0bcdc85760de6d4) ghc has started calling gcc
| with extra comand line parameters:
| 
|     -x assembler
| 
| From the gcc man page
| 
|     -x language
|        Specify explicitly the language for the following input files
|        (rather than letting the compiler choose a default based on
|        the file name suffix).  This option applies to all following
|        input files until the next -x option.  Possible values for
|        language are:
| 
|          c  c-header  cpp-output
|          c++  c++-header  c++-cpp-output
|          objective-c  objective-c-header  objective-c-cpp-output
|          objective-c++ objective-c++-header objective-c++-cpp-output
|          assembler  assembler-with-cpp
|          ada
|          f77  f77-cpp-input f95  f95-cpp-input
|          go
|          java
| 
| The attached patch replaces '-x assembler' with '-x assembler-with-cpp'
| and fixes the problem for me on powerpc.
