It compiles fine for me.  I'm using ghc-6.5.20060608.

Have you tried make clean by any chance?  Shot in the dark; everytime I
get one of these weird ld/closure thingies, a make clean solves the
problem.

Spoke too soon.  I just upgraded to the official GHC 6.6 and now I can
reproduce the problem.

Tommy, I believe this is the patch you want (from unstable)

Yep, multiple times.

Maybe there's something in 6.5 that didn't make it into 6.6 ? or the  
6.6 binary release for osx/intel is broken.
