Maybe we were compiling with different options? I compiled with -O2
-fvia-C -optc-O3.

Oh, I know! I slightly changed the code.
import Data.Ord
e ((x, y), arr) p = [(t, arr // [(t, p)]) | t <- changes]
where
legit ps = [t | t <- allTurns ! ps, arr ! t == 0]
changes = sortOn (length . legit) (legit (x, y))
sortOn = sortBy . comparing
My version gives answer for 60, 60 in one second. But if both
dimensions are >60, it won't finish.
Yes, very strange.
