I've had similar bugs due to sloppy haskell -> C FFI conversions so I'm sympathetic to the idea. It's just a blanket deprecation on fromIntegral seems like a broad brush.
I assume that conversion causes problems depending on the architecture. E.g. Int -> CInt might be a lossless conversion on a 32-bit architecture and lossy on 64-bit.
