All you need to know about asynchronous exceptions is: *don't use
them!* They're
too difficult to reason about, in terms of failure modes and such. Use TVars
or MVars instead.

Hello all,
I was recently reading "Asynchronous Exceptions as an Effect" by Harrison, Allwein, Gill and Procter, and noticed at the end that they found an error in the operational semantics described in "Asynchronous Exceptions in Haskell" by the Simons and Andrew Moran. Does anyone know what this error was, and whether or not it was corrected in the December 12, 2006 version of the paper floating around on the net?
Thanks, Edward
