First you try to dialyze smaller portions of your code base at a time 
and locate the module where dialyzer crashes.  Alternatively, you make a 
lucky guess which module it is.

Judging from the error, I am guessing that you most probably have some 
"old-style fun" application in your code.  Something of the form:

	{M,F}(Arg1,...,ArgN)

Change this to M:F(Arg1,...,ArgN) instead which is more kosher, or to a 
fun, which is more... fun :)
