Comment(by MartijnVanSteenbergen):
Thank you, that's great news!
Just yesterday I wrote three programs which used -XNoMonoPatBinds and
respectively caused the type-checker to hang, to panic and compiled fine
but (seemed to) have wrong behaviour, using GHC 7.0.3.
I've made the panic program as small as I could:
{{{
{-# LANGUAGE NoMonoPatBinds #-}
f :: Show a => a
(f, _) = undefined
g :: Show a => a
g = f
}}}
Perhaps you can use it as a test case for the new algorithm.
If I manage to make the other programs smaller too, I'll post them here.
