Maybe this is by design, but in case it isn't: I was a little
suprprised when I came across this behavior of ghci:
ghci
... GHC Interactive, version 5.04.1, for Haskell 98. ...
Prelude> :m Concurrent
Prelude Concurrent> let loop c = putChar c >> loop c
in forkIO (loop 'a') >> (loop 'z')
zazazazazazazazazazazazazazazazazazazazazazazazazazazazazazazazazazazazazaza
zazazazazazazazazazazazazazazazazazazazazazazazazazazazazazazazazazazazazaza
zazazazazazazazazazazazazazazazazazazazazazazazazazazazazazazazazazazazazaza
Interrupted.
aPrelude Concurrent> sum [1..100]
aaaaaaaaaaaaa5050
aPrelude Concurrent> 1+2
aaaaaaaa3
Obviously, "loop 'a'" has never been terminated and starts running anytime
execution is in progress. I might expect that either interrupting the
execution would kill *all* processes or that after interrupting "loop 'z'"
that I would still see the "loop 'a'" executing.
This is on 386 Linux.
