+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+Consider this code:
+
+  import Data.Bits( (.|.), shiftL )
+  chunkToBitmap :: [Bool] -> Word32
+  chunkToBitmap chunk = foldr (.|.) 0 [ 1 `shiftL` n | (True,n) <- zip chunk [0..] ]
+
+This optimises to:
+Shift.$wgo = \ (w_sCS :: GHC.Prim.Int#) (w1_sCT :: [GHC.Types.Bool]) ->
+    case w1_sCT of _ {
+      [] -> __word 0;
+      : x_aAW xs_aAX ->
+        case x_aAW of _ {
+          GHC.Types.False ->
+            case w_sCS of wild2_Xh {
+              __DEFAULT -> Shift.$wgo (GHC.Prim.+# wild2_Xh 1) xs_aAX;
+              9223372036854775807 -> __word 0  };
+          GHC.Types.True ->
+            case GHC.Prim.>=# w_sCS 64 of _ {
+              GHC.Types.False ->
+                case w_sCS of wild3_Xh {
+                  __DEFAULT ->
+                    case Shift.$wgo (GHC.Prim.+# wild3_Xh 1) xs_aAX of ww_sCW { __DEFAULT ->
+                      GHC.Prim.or# (GHC.Prim.narrow32Word#
+                                      (GHC.Prim.uncheckedShiftL# (__word 1) wild3_Xh))
+                                   ww_sCW
+                     };
+                  9223372036854775807 ->
+                    GHC.Prim.narrow32Word#
+!!!!-->                  (GHC.Prim.uncheckedShiftL# (__word 1) 9223372036854775807)
+                };
+              GHC.Types.True ->
+                case w_sCS of wild3_Xh {
+                  __DEFAULT -> Shift.$wgo (GHC.Prim.+# wild3_Xh 1) xs_aAX;
+                  9223372036854775807 -> __word 0
+                } } } }
+
+Note the massive shift on line "!!!!".  It can't happen, because we've checked 
+that w < 64, but the optimiser didn't spot that. We DO NO want to constant-fold this!
+Moreover, if the programmer writes (n `uncheckedShiftL` 9223372036854775807), we
+can't constant fold it, but if it gets to the assember we get
+     Error: operand type mismatch for `shl'
+
+So the best thing to do is to rewrite the shift with a call to error,
+when the second arg is stupid.
