When do you plan on releasing a new version of GHC with this bug fixed as I rely on it pretty heavily? The sources are in pretty good shape right now. Performance is significantly improved over 4.02 due to RULES and wotnot, and a load of bugs have been fixed. We'll probably do a release fairly soon, but it'd be nice if this was a "full binary release", which naturally takes a bit longer. I think we'll wind down development over the next couple of weeks, let things settle down and then go into release mode. Cheers, Simon
