Comment:

 Thanks for the report; also happens for me on Linux/amd64.

 The failing assertion is this one:
 {{{
 lookupBinding :: IdEnv HowBound -> Id -> HowBound
 lookupBinding env v = case lookupVarEnv env v of
             Just xx -> xx
             Nothing -> ASSERT2( isGlobalId v, ppr v ) ImportBound
 }}}

 The references to `eqString` are:
 {{{
 eqString :: String -> String -> Bool
 eqString []       []       = True
 eqString (c1:cs1) (c2:cs2) = c1 == c2 && cs1 `eqString` cs2
 eqString cs1      cs2      = False

 {-# RULES "eqString" (==) = eqString #-}
 -- eqString also has a BuiltInRule in PrelRules.lhs:
 --  eqString (unpackCString# (Lit s1)) (unpackCString# (Lit s2) = s1==s2
 }}}
 and it's got a wired-in unique.
