Comment:

 No response from submitter, but the bug was almost certainly fixed by this
 patch:

 {{{
 Tue Nov 14 12:31:57 GMT 2006  Simon Marlow <simonmar at microsoft.com>
   * Fix (yet another) odd interaction between selector thunks and
 compacting GC
   This should fix errors of the form

     internal error: scavenge_mark_stack: unimplemented/strange closure
       type 28 @ 0x2b92e5f79960

   But since it's quite difficult to reproduce the error, I can't be 100%
   certain it's gone.  I certainly can't reproduce it again after the
   fix, anyway.
 }}}

 The patch has been merged into 6.6.
