http://hackage.haskell.org/packages/archive/binary/0.5.0.2/doc/html/Data-Binary-Get.html#v%3AgetLazyByteString getLazyByteString :: Int64 -> Get ByteString An efficient get method for lazy ByteStrings. Does not fail if fewer than n bytes are left in the input. Because it does it lazily it cannot check if it's gone past the end of the input. Arguably this is crazy and the function should not exist.
