*sigh* nevermind.

I found it. Turns out there was:
liftMCT :: (Monad m) => MC a -> MCT m a
in an unexported module in the monte-carlo package all along. I just need to export it and I'll be good to go.

Thanks for your help!

The monad my code is currently written in is:

type MC = MCT Identity -- where MCT is the monad transformer version of it.

I have two options for threading state through this:

    MCT (ST s) a
    StateT s MC a

The first option would work if I had some function with the signature

MCT Identity a -> MCT (ST s) a

but I know of no such function, and the second one would work if I had some way of making StateT a member of PrimMonad.

Can I see an example with 'lift'?

You can use Control.Monad.Trans.lift to lift the PrimMonad operations
to PrimMonad m => StateT s m
