I might be missing something, but I don't think that's related to the
kernel?

Title:
  [UBUNTU 24.04] Haskell LLVM Backend: Objects of data section are
  missing alignment

Status in ghc package in Ubuntu:
  New
Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Description:
  Objects of the data section may be accessed through tagged pointers. Thus, 
those objects require a minimal alignment of 8 byte on a 64-bit architecture. 
Otherwise, this may lead to undefined behavior.

  Solution:
  commit
  
https://gitlab.haskell.org/ghc/ghc/-/commit/dfe1c3540e4b519b62b862b5966dfec5cae9ece1

  This patch resolves the alignment issue for all targets utilizing the
  LLVM backend. The fix was backported by upstream for ghc release 9.6
  and 9.8 but not for 9.4.x which has landed in Noble.
