As for Bryan's resource-pool: currently I would strongly recommend *against* using it for any purpose. It is based on MonadCatchIO-transformers[2], which is a subtly broken package. In particular, when I tried using it for pool/persistent in the first place, I ended up with double-free bugs from SQLite.

Do you have a reference explaining this brokenness? e.g. a mailing list message? I wasn't aware of this. Are the other MonadCatchIO-* packages also broken?
