But as ghc-6.8.2 handles DoCon all right, why do not you investigate this difference in 6.8.3 ?

We did investigate it - the details are in this trac ticket: http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/2328 but the conclusion was that overall it was best to leave things as they are. Unfortunately, this means that performance with GHC 6.8.3 is worse for DoCon; hopefully things will be better with 6.10.1! Thanks Ian
