Comment (by NeilMitchell):

 That's quite different since (after inlining a few bits):

 {{{
 $wlvl
 $wlvl = \ _ -> error "here"

 m = $wlvl void#
 }}}

 So {{{m}}} evaluates to {{{_|_}}} in GHC 7.8 which means a case with no
 alternatives is correct. However, in 7.10 the scrutinee evaluates to a
 lambda, not {{{_|_}}}, so no alternatives is wrong.
