 Save the following module as {{{throwto.hs}}}

 {{{
 import Control.Concurrent
 import Control.Exception
 import Control.Monad

 main = do
   tid <- mask_ $ forkIO $ void $
     (try $ threadDelay 100000 :: IO (Either SomeException ()))
   killThread tid
 }}}

 Then compile it with HEAD and run it:

 {{{
 ghc-stage2 throwto.hs -prof -threaded -fforce-recomp
 ./throwto +RTS -N2
 # segfaults
 }}}
