Comment (by dons):

 Replying to [comment:15 duncan]:
 > I don't think that patch is enough to fix the "thunk-bomb" problem
 (though I think it is also necessary). It also needs `getStdRandom` to seq
 the gen state when updating the `IORef`. Mind you, I've not actually
 tested it.

 Needs someone to test it now :-)
