Comment (by bgamari):

 Indeed reworking the code in question to use `unsafeFreezeByteArray#`
 resolves the STG lint violation. I've opened a
 [[https://github.com/bos/text/pull/144|pull request]] against `text`
 fixing this.

 Given that this issue is only observed with `unsafeCoerce#` and STG
 linting is already a bit sketchy, I'm going to close this as won't fix.

 Thanks for your report!
