Excerpts from Adam Megacz's message of Sun Apr 24 18:14:16 -040
The (new) commentary describes a mechanism for creating "links" from
inline/interleaved comments to detached comments:

Is Haddock aware of this mechanism on some level? If not, does it have
a similar me
Understanding GHC.Prim.Any is all about understanding the need for
explicit type applications in CoreSyn; the previous example had one
explicit type application but was missing the other, which this patch
adds. It also expands the explanation, based on SPJ's post here:

It's coming from GHC itself, after I have added in some extra code.
That extra code is what's using unsafeCoerce in a [purportedly]
disciplined way.

Typing
make inplace/bin/ghc-stage1
will build ghc-stage1 (as desired). Then it also runs the configure
scripts for all of the libraries, which takes a really long time.
Is there some invocation of make that will just recompile

So, I have a situation where my modified GHC is segfaulting. All
compilation is done with -O0. I'm sort of hoping for suggestions on how
to continue figuring this out.
