I'm not used to think in term of strict / lazy evaluation so I'll need to re-read them a few times until I understand everything :) As a default I was told to use strict fields to avoid accumulating thunks, and it's the first time I encounter a problem where I actually need lazyness. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/14521#comment:23 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
