Comment:

 I added an API that you can use to open a file in blocking mode if you
 want:

 {{{
 Tue Mar 29 14:09:28 BST 2011  Simon Marlow <[email protected]>
   * Add GHC.IO.Handle.FD.openFileBlocking (#4248)
   like openFile, but opens the file without O_NONBLOCK
 }}}

 It's in a GHC-specific module, because this is a GHC-specific issue.  You
 could also use `System.Posix.openFD` and then `System.Posix.fdToHandle`,
 which is more portable.
