Hi again,

Unfortunately I haven't been able to make any further progress.
I've been having a lot of problems to get the compiler working. I tested
many different hypotheses about the bug with no success so far, and I've
talked with David Chisnall to see if he could lend me a hand and he has
given me some pointers. So, hopefully, I'll be past this stage this week.
