Thanks for all the info.
It's really good news that code coverage is now part of the GHC compiler!
Any more info on that "deep seq"? I can't find it in the libraries that come with GHC 6.6.1. It seems to be part of Control.Strategies.DeepSeq of HXT. This is a separate download?
Intuitively, I would say "deep seq" forces strict evaluation of the complete "graph" of its first argument? Is this correct?
Yep, that's it. Its rarely needed, but exists if you want it (its easy to define on your own too). -- Don
