See my new smallest report of today to  ..bugs@..
And I tried to switch out the new garbage collector by 
                              +RTS -c100 -RTS,  
and this does not help.
On the other hand, this looks like a trouble with memory 
management:  -M100k - all right,  
             -M300k - Heap exhausted.
