Shouldn't that be 0.1?

You use Dynamic for the data type in IORefs, this has the unfortunate
consequence of needing Typeable constraints. You could try to use
unsafeCoerce instead,
> type Data = ()
> unsafeToData :: a -> Data
> unsafeToData = unsafeCoerce

> unsafeFromData = unsafeCoerce
I think this should be just as safe as Dynamic, since internally Dynamic
uses unsafeCoerce as well. Just steal the details from there.
