Comment:

 Hmm, and in another package:

 {{{
 ghc: internal error: ARR_WORDS object entered!
      (GHC version 8.0.1 for powerpc64le_unknown_linux)
      Please report this as a GHC bug:
 http://www.haskell.org/ghc/reportabug
 }}}

 It looks like quite a few more memory barriers are missing. I don't have
 enough time right now to work on this.
