Is there any GHC syntax for constructing a primitive string literal with a known (not hand coded) byte count? With `"some bytes"#` I get just the `Addr#` pointer, but not the size.
If there's nothing available, would it be reasonable to introduce a new syntax?
Perhaps:
"some bytes"## :: (# Addr#, Int# #)
