+
+There is a flag `-dword-hex-literals` that causes literals of
+type `Word#` or `Word64#` to be displayed in hexadecimal instead
+of decimal when dumping GHC core. It also affects the presentation
+of these in GHC's error messages. Additionally, the hexadecimal
+encoding of these numbers is zero-padded so that its length is
+a power of two. As an example of what this does,
+consider the following haskell file `Literals.hs`:
+
+ module Literals where
+
+ alpha :: Int
+ alpha = 100 + 200
+
+ beta :: Word -> Word
+ beta x = x + div maxBound 255 + div 0xFFFFFFFF 255 + 0x0202
+
+We get the following dumped core when we compile on a 64-bit
+machine with ghc -O2 -fforce-recomp -ddump-simpl -dsuppress-all
+-dhex-word-literals literals.hs:

+ 0x0202##)
+ }
+
+Notice that the word literals are in hexadecimals and that they have
+been padded with zeroes so that their lengths are 16, 8, and 4, respectively.
