Now you could make purely functional code raise I/O exceptions, but that gives rise to a few problems: imprecise exceptions are difficult to program with (need deepSeq etc.), and they aren't widely implemented (Hugs doesn't have them, JHC doesn't have them and may not get them IIUC).
Hugs has had imprecise exceptions (but not asynchronous ones) since Nov 2003.
