Comment (by simonpj):

 > It looks like `check#` has the wrong type anyway, its implementation
 returns () (ie. zero return values in Cmm), so its Haskell type should
 have a return type of `State# RealWorld`

 Ben: could you do this and validate, pls?  Fixes a bug and helps move this
 ticket along.
