 If you make a per-instance index method, you may consider inlining it.
 
+Note [Double bounds-checking of index values]
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+When you index an array, a!x, there are two possible bounds checks we might make:
+
+  (A) Check that (inRange (bounds a) x) holds.  
+
+      (A) is checked in the method for 'index'
+
+  (B) Check that (index (bounds a) x) lies in the range 0..n, 
+      where n is the size of the underlying array
+
+      (B) is checked in the top-level function (!), in safeIndex.
+
+Of course it *should* be the case that (A) holds iff (B) holds, but that 
+is a property of the particular instances of index, bounds, and inRange,
+so GHC cannot guarantee it.
+
+ * If you do (A) and not (B), then you might get a seg-fault, 
+   by indexing at some bizarre location.  Trac #1610
+
+ * If you do (B) but not (A), you may get no complaint when you index
+   an array out of its semantic bounds.  Trac #2120
+
+At various times we have had (A) and not (B), or (B) and not (A); both
+led to complaints.  So now we implement *both* checks (Trac #2669).
+
+For 1-d, 2-d, and 3-d arrays of Int we have specialised instances to avoid this.
