Comment:

 Improving isSpace is going to be difficult. I've done some Criterion
 benchmarking of the suggested optimizations, and for most of them, the
 benefit is modest. This may reflect improved optimization in GHC 6.10.2.

 However, there is a small improvement in `gspace'` and `gspace'''` as
 compared to `gspace`, so that might be worth doing?
