AlbertoRuiz/hmatrix — Issue #2: segfault on 64bit, interpreted mode

On 64-bit machines, some programs (e.g. examples/minimize.hs) produce a segmentation fault when run from ghci. In that program the crash is inside gsl_multimin_fdfminimizer_alloc, in the C wrapper. If the program is run by runhaskell it just terminates prematurely, producing no results.

This problem does not happen in compiled mode.

(I don't know if this has been fixed in more recent ghc versions.)
