(Just guessing from your description, no actual testing done by me.)
This could very well be a ghc 6.4 bug.  Version 6.4.1is out since
September 19th; if that's available on Debian/AMD64 and if you could
test with that, that would be great.

Oh, and keep the "darcs changes --context" of the repo (with unrecorded
changes of course) in which you can reproduce this, just in case a
follow-up patch would change the source so that it doesn't trigger this
ghc bug anymore.

Groetjes,
