Cool message -- forward it to Simon PJ to get more info. cdsmith:

I'm running into this in some code I wrote. What does it mean? It says to look at -fspec-constr-count, but that flag doesn't seem to be in the GHC documentation.

It's fairly new -- you can get explosions in the number of specialisations with Specconstr sometimes, and iirc this tunes that value.

This isn't critical; the code still seems to work fine. It just makes the build uglier.

Thanks. Message below.
