Yo,

I didn't find many references to this on Google except a 2001 message saying "Send this problem to us!"  I don't know what's changed since then, so I'll poke the list:

I compiled my code with -fdicts-strict.  (Why is this not a mainstream thing?  It eliminates gratuitous polymorphism overhead, which is one of my biggest sources of angst!)  Looking at ghc-core, my code appears to always give the exception "Oops!  Entered absent arg ww_s9eC{v} [lid] <pred>main:Data.Algebra.Ring.Ring{tc r2tU} c{tv a8Os} [tv]"

Is this typical?  Where should I send this?
