I've created a ticket at: https://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/10176
Now I know what I'm looking for, I'll aim to track down a minimal
example over nap time (about 5 hours from now).
Thanks, Neil

one else hit this with RC2 might just be because its a very recent

This is very odd---the example on the ticket does not use `Typeable` at all.
I looked through the diffs of the patch and I can't see anything obviously
wrong.
Also, the `Typeable` code only touches modules that are in the front-end,
and when I compile without optimizations, the example looks
Yes, this was what I was afraid of; an introduced regression in the RC
2-to-3 period, which IMO makes the bug a bit more serious. Also, this
bug in particular looks like it manifests in a fairly nasty way, and
having it catch people for the final release seems a bit worrisome.

I was wondering if there have been any state hack related changes or
other potentially dangerous optimisation changes since RC2? I'll
continue to try reducing the bug, but it's somewhat difficult as the
larger system is quite big,
more pin-point and hence the
differences will be smaller.
