Comment:

 SafeHaskell doesn't currently attempt to enforce compile-time safety, if
 you're using this to compile untrusted code then you should do the
 compilation in a sandbox.  There's some discussion of this in the
 SafeHaskell paper.  (dterei please correct me if I'm wrong)

 See also [wiki:SafeHaskell/SafeCompilation]

 We should say something about this in the docs.  David, any chance you'll
 be able to look into this?
