Please report this as a GHC bug: http://www.haskell.org/ghc/reportabug
I am attaching the test.hs that causes this. It needs hashed-storage and mtl from hackage to build, but otherwise it should be fairly minimal. I suppose I could cut it down further to only need mtl, but I already spent an hour tracking this down instead of getting work done. If you do need a further cutdown, let me know though, and I can try.
