 ghc.exe: panic! (the 'impossible' happened)

         thread blocked indefinitely in an MVar operation

 Please report this as a GHC bug: http://www.haskell.org/ghc/reportabug
 "

 I am able to reproduce it by:
 1. starting ghci (with no arguments, or a file as an argument)
 2. holding down contol-c for 2 seconds
 3. holding down spacebar/a letter key for 2 seconds
 The timing varies.
