I can understand that. However, the prudent thing to do is not to upgrade to a new ghc release until things have settled a bit; especially not if you want to avoid fixing library bugs (mostly build related) and most especially if you are on Windows. Ghc-6.6.1 is stable and IME most of the hackage stuff works out-of-the-box. (Note that Duncan gave you similar advice, although maybe it got lost beyond all the scary installation tips concerning gtk2hs under ghc-6.8.1;) Or /is/ there a special reason you need to use ghc-6.8.1?
Not really I guess. I was rather excited about the new debugger, but other than that I guess I just like to use the newest version of everything. And it would be annoying to have to downgrade now. Still, it looks like there's an easy workaround for this particular issue. (And I'm already explicitly checking array bounds anyway...)
