Comment (by simonmar):
I can't reproduce it either (on x86).
I looked at the code in GHC and can't see any obvious bugs in this area.
The way that the bug seems to be hard to reproduce indicates that it is
based on something fragile - perhaps some runtime mutation with
unsafePerformIO, or some strange RTS bug. But it looks like it might only
be reproducible on x86_64 - Ian, do you have a 64-bit box to test it on?
I don't have easy access to one right now.
