Comment:

 Thanks. You are defining the same precise name twice:
 {{{
   data Foo_79 = Foo_79
 }}}
 where `Foo_79` is the exact name.  This is bad, because you are defining
 the same name twice.  You probably intended `mkName` rather than
 `newName`.

 But GHC shouldn't crash, and I will fix that.  Thanks.

 Simon
