Most of the time it's unnecessary to use an explicit Int#. If your Int is in a data structure, you can use
{-# UNPACK #-} !Int
which is portable, and compiles to an unboxed Int in GHC >= 6.2.
Is this different from !Int and -funbox-strict ? (I.e., should I change from this to UNPACK pragmas?) -kzm -- If I haven't seen further, it is by standing in the footprints of giants
