The concept of DeepSeq bothers me, because usually more limited use of
strictness will do the job, and sometimes total strictness can't be used.
Alternatives are strictList_ and strictList as defined in the "Prelude
Extensions" at
http://haskell.org/hawiki/PreludeExts
You could substitute
seq (strictList x) y
for hyperseq x y.
