Comment (by bgamari):

 Actually, comment:7 isn't quite right: The fact that `loop` doesn't
 diverge should be accounted for by the `ExnStr` of the first argument of
 `orElse`. I would have thought that the `ExnStr` should propagate to the
 second argument of `loop` during demand analysis but it doesn't. That
 seems to be the issue.
