Stepping back a bit -
This thread seems like a poor place to discuss the objectives and merits of Safe Haskell.
It is also a poor place to discuss Safe Haskell in the context of Haskell Platform. That is a good discussion we should have, so let's start a new thread for that... See my next post.
Can we bring this back to the issue of adding vector, as it is today, to the Platform.
For the record, I say "yes, add it".
