I've applied the 2.1 patch to http://darcs.haskell.org/old-from-monk/parsec/ but I think that is unmaintained now.
Thanks Ian!
Unmaintained, eh? Are people migrating to Parsec 3.0? Last discussion I heard about that (many months ago), Parsec 3.0 had some performance issues when used as a drop-in replacement for 2.1. I notice that Haskell Platform ships with 2.1 and that the RWH chapter stays within the subset of 2.1. Anyone know if the Haskell Platform is changing to 3.0 in the next release?
The gitit team *won't move to parsec 3 because it is too slow*.
I thought someone recently had a look at the performance of parsec 3 and managed to get it pretty much the same as that of parsec 2? http://www.haskell.org/pipermail/haskell-cafe/2009-December/070196.html The main obstacle to applying the work seemed to be that the author was worried about having made a fundamental data structure change in the process of switching to CPS.
