Comment(by JeremyShaw):
I have attached a test case.
As submitted, the test case works under 7.0.4 and 7.2.2 and fails under
7.4rc1 and 7.5.20111215.
When successful, the application will print 'done.' and exit. When it
fails the application will hang or print <<loop>>.
if you uncomment line 22
{{{
-- instance Widgets (IdentityT IO) -- if you uncomment this, it will work
}}}
The code will work 7.4rc1 (and probably 7.5).
