Well I'm a total Haskell newbie, and you're using Haskell to write imperative code, so it's really hard for me to read, but looking at your code, you have: (IOUArray Int Bool) -- an array of Bool Bool is a 32-bit value in Haskell AFAIK? (or possibly a machine-dependent sized value, but certainly not a bit?)
