Sure I am!

Actually, thanks to the pointers provided by Henning I learned that
Oleg (who else!) already has implemented them. See

http://okmij.org/ftp/Haskell/number-parameterized-types.html
http://www.haskell.org/tmrwiki/NumberParamTypes
http://okmij.org/ftp/Haskell/number-param-vector-code.tar.gz (Oleg's
multiple flavour implementations of fixed-sized vectors)

I think we should base our implementation on Oleg's (for which we need
his permission). Actually, I think we should create two separate
libraries. One for decimal type-level arithmetic and another for the
vector implementation itself. What do you think?
