#8298: +RTS -hb crash when blocking on empty TChan
------------------------------------------------+--------------------------

Type: bug | Status: new
Priority: normal | Milestone:
Component: Runtime System | Version: 7.6.3
Keywords: biographical stm tchan block | Operating System: Linux

------------------------------------------------+--------------------------
Running the following code
{{{
module Main where
import Control.Concurrent
import Control.Concurrent.STM
main :: IO ()
main = do
c <- newTChanIO
forkIO . atomically $ readTChan c
return ()
}}}
produces:
{{{
$ ./tmp +RTS -hb
tmp: internal error: Invalid object in processHeapClosureForDead(): 0
(GHC version 7.6.3 for x86_64_unknown_linux)
}}}
It crashes without forkIO as well, I inserted it so that a plain run
doesn't result in "thread blocked indefinitely in an STM transaction".
