When I validated, there were some hiccups, including around performance. IIRC, there were actually three performance improvements along with one regression, but I have to investigate properly. (A performance improvement is certainly not unexpected with this patch.) When I saw these problems, I prioritized other tasks, but will return to this eventually. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/12442#comment:2 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
