Well, the fgl version that I had in mind is hosted at http://darcs.haskell.org/packages/fgl it's an extra (but not, granted, a core) library in ghc, and the darcs repository lists libraries@haskell.org as the address to send patches to. Interestingly, at least part of the bug that prompted the discussion is not present in the version from Martin Erwig's homepage. On the other hand, that version does not work with ghc 6.8.2, due to MArray changes.
If the maintainer times out (possible here), we can declare it orphaned, and its free game.
Fair enough. Bertram
