The following three-liner creates a stack overflow (on my machine, MacOS), and
I'm a bit puzzled as to why:

botanix:~ stolz$ ./a.out
Stack space overflow: current size 8388608 bytes.
Use `+RTS -Ksize -RTS' to increase it.
Shall it print something? I think mapM_ would be better here. If you
compile with 'ghc -Wall' then GHC will also warn you, that you ignored the
result of mapM. I think, HLint would also warn you.
