----------------------------------------+----------------------------------
 Observed behavior:
 * The below program exits with return code 0 between the call to 'error
 "derp2"' and the call to 'error "derp"'
 * If the statement 'error "derp2"' is uncommented, the program will
 terminate with an exception.
 * The program only exits without output with -O. And in particular, with
 no-ignore-interface-pragmas.

 Expected behavior:
 * The program should terminate with an exception regardless of whether
 'error "derp2"' is commented out or not.

 {{{#!hs
 module Main where

 import Control.Concurrent.STM
 import Control.Concurrent.STM.TVar

 data A = A String deriving (Eq, Show)

 data E = E {
   a :: TVar [Int],
   b :: TVar A,
   c :: TVar [Int]
   }

 consistency_1 :: E -> STM Bool
 consistency_1 = \e -> do
   _ <- readTVar $ c e
   return True

 installSanityChecks :: E -> IO ()
 installSanityChecks e = do
   x e
   error "derp"

 x e = do
   atomically $ mapM_ installCheck [
     consistency_1
     ]
   -- error "derp2"
   where
     installCheck check = always $ check e

 main :: IO ()
 main = do
   state <- initialize
   installSanityChecks state

 initialize :: IO E
 initialize = E <$> newTVarIO [] <*> newTVarIO (A "USD") <*> newTVarIO []
 }}}

 Build options: (Remove -O and it will show the error)
