Unable to commit [negative number] bytes of memory
In issues like https://github.com/haskell/text/issues/221 we observe:
"<interactive>: internal error: Unable to commit -1604321280 bytes of memory
(GHC version 8.2.2 for x86_64_unknown_linux)
Please report this as a GHC bug: http://www.haskell.org/ghc/reportabugUnable to commit a **negative** amount of bytes?
That looks like integer overflow somewhere.
