Comment:
Since 6.12.1, the I/O manager is supposed to survive forking the process
(see #1185). I ported this behavior to the new I/O manager. If forking no
longer works correctly, it's a regression in the new I/O manager. Could
you please test this by running your program on both 6.12 and 7.0?
There's a regression test for #1185 in the GHC repo and it ran
successfully for me when I validated my patches.
