I don't know if this qualifies as a bugs.
Trying to make a binary smaller, I discovered that a few strings
appear *many* times in it.
Telling sh to `strings hhttpd | sort | uniq -c | sort -rn | head -n 30'
gives me the top 30 included below. This is something like 200K out of
the 1367996 bytes in hhttpd, which is a 15% aprox. hhttpd was built with
ghc-3.01 with lots of optimization on (that is, -O -O2-for-C -fvia-C)
That's too many `Urk's, isn't it?
