Hello again,

I think, I've found the problem. GHC seems to not implement Data.Array.array 
correctly. The implementation doesn't adhere to the following sentence from 
the Data.Array.IArray.array documentation:
    If any two associations in the list have the same index, the value at that
    index is undefined.
Could this be fixed?

Wolfgang
