There are lots of pure data types we'd like in the "pure data" layer (e.g. bytestring) that uses FFI. As long as the I/O layer itself (System.IO, the I/O manager, etc) doesn't get pulled in there's no real problem in depending on the FFI. Doesn't the FFI pull in some part of the I/O layer, though? In particular threaded programs are going to end up using forkOS?
