Apologies. I was being lazy. Here's a stable version:

  import qualified Data.HashSet as S

  hashNub :: (Ord a) => [a] -> [a]
  hashNub l = go S.empty l
    where
      go _ []     = []
      go s (x:xs) = if x `S.member` s then go s xs
                                    else x : go (S.insert x s) xs

Which, again, will probably be faster than the one using Ord, and I
can't think of any cases where I'd want the one using Ord instead. I
may just not be creative enough, though.
