Comment (by thoughtpolice):

 Bah, I figured this might happen but was hoping we'd be OK on the accuracy
 in this case. Maybe it was too late...

 Thinking about it more, the test isn't really checking output, it just
 wants to check the actual floating point code works.

 Since Complex is already strict in both of its components, a better test
 might be something like:

 {{{
 :set -XBangPatterns
 :m + Data.Complex
 let !x = ... in putStrLn "BOOM"
 }}}
