Comment (by nomeata):

 >  (Trying to set NoCafInfo on all the extra floats I am generating here,
 and rebuilding the libraries. Will report back.)

 That did the trick. No more crashes. I conclude that having a data
 constructor closure mentioned in the SRT is bad.

 But it is not everz occurence that causes problems: With the libraries
 built so that all new floats have `NoCafInfo`, and then building my test
 program to include the floated `()` closure or `GHC.Base.Nothing_closure`
 in the SRT does *not* crash. So there must be further conditions required
 for such an entry in the SRT causing a crash.


 Maybe with this analysis Simon Marlow can without too much effort shed
 more light on the issue.
