Hi, I am using Foreign.Concurrent.newForeignPtr and touchForeignPtr inside the finalizers to express liveness dependencies as hinted to by the documentation. This doesn't seem to work, though, or at least I can't see what I've done wrong. I attached a test module; compiled with ghc -fglasgow-exts --make TestForeignTouchBug.hs, ghc version 6.2.2, this gives .../foreigntouchbug > ./a.out <hit enter here> before finalizing A after finalizing A before finalizing B after finalizing B <hit enter here> I expected the order of the finalizer calls be be the other way around, since the finalizer for the Bs explicitly touches the A value.
