Following up on haskell-cafe:

Hi Chris,

I would love to use this with regex-tdfa (and the other regex-* modules).

At the moment regex-tdfa is uses a few extensions such as recursive "mdo"
notation and parts hook up to the MPTC + fundeps used in regex-base.  The
MPTC+fundeps are not part of the workhorse modules, they are just "type class
syntactic sugar" that makes it easier for the library consumer.  But "mdo" _is_
used in two of the important internal functions.

You have several options:

* Wait until GHC Core is working, when Catch will work with all these
things automatically.

* Rewrite your code to eliminate mdo, if you wish to port regex to Yhc
you will need to do this anyway.

* Find an mdo preprocessor (I think one exists?) and preprocess the
code before checking.

Obviously the GHC Core one is least work for you, but won't be
available for a while.

Thanks

Neil
