Hmmm, maybe a warning is the best solution in general. Even without trying any link time resolution. Given how hard Cale had to work to reproduce it, I think it's a rare problem. Maybe someone who knows the innards of ghc could make a quick hack that turns on the M-R and warns when there's actually sharing being lost. Philippa Cowderoy wrote:

Personally I think that this ought to be resolved by static means -- and yes, by the linker, as it can't be done properly earlier.
But there are cases that cannot be resolved statically. On the other hand, they are probably rare enough to ignore.
Or to flag up a compiler and/or linker warning for those who request them?
