I'm in the camp of adding -fno-warn-unused-do-bind to my cabal files.  I hate sacrificing the purity of -Wall but I have so many forkIOs in my code that I think it was the best option.

I think a nice compromise position would be the ability to annotate a function as "never trigger the unused do bind warning for me". That way I could catch these errors when I care, but also continue to ignore the return value of forkIO. I guess this doesn't help the space-leak argument for the warning, however. Antoine
