Or not ;-) But yes, I should've checked and my comments on how that'll behave stand. It would be nice to think something clever could happen regarding memory management as well, but I'm familiar enough with GCed systems by now to be somewhat wary of cleverness.
I don't know how it's done, but when you compile it with 'ghc -O2', the program runs in constant space. Unfortunately with Hugs and GHCi it grows.
