-----------------------+----------------------------------------------------
Apparently, ghci has changed its behaviour from 6.4 to print the result of
 IO actions, even if assinged to a variable.  I often do something like


 {{{
 ghci> x <- myParser "largeFile"
 }}}


 in order to do various tests on x.  Having the contents of x dumped to the
 monitor is annoying,
 and defeats laziness testing completely.
