i did some digging to see if theres a simple fix ... but then i realized that the current design they have for inlineR always assumes theres IO available in pure computations ... which they use the s parameter to thread into the pure vector code via reflection tricks so it looks like the "right" way fix this would be to have the MVector data type have both the state token for the the underlying resource AND whatever PrimMonad its running in, rather than smashing them together... especially since the ST monad and friend wont wont have the same state token as the underlying IO resource either way, what seems to be going on is that theres a mutex on which computations talk with the R RTS/instance the haskell code talks to, and theres a little bit of a mismatch in how they handle that .. either way, its not a ghc issue, its a design issue around vector and the api contract as the maintainers understand it vs how the package uses it. (though i repeat: i do think theres an issue in how they factor thestate token stuff ) On Sat, Dec 29, 2018 at 7:06 PM Carter Schonwald wrote:

Hi Carter, thanks for looking into this. We were initially surprised to see a breaking change in a point release, but no biggy. It's pretty hard to offer strong stability guarantees without automated tooling to catch this kind of thing, and these things happen. We'll patch up HaskellR shortly.
