I find the documentation of takeMVar and readMVar in section 1.4.1 confusing
if not non-existent. The only documentation appears to be (apart from the
types themselves):
MVars are rendezvous points, mostly for concurrent threads. They begin
either empty or full, and any attempt to read an

You may have noticed a distinct lowering in bandwidth
from GHC HQ. Simon Marlow is on holiday, and the ICFP
deadline is 1st March. I'm scrawling frantically, and even when Simon
gets back he will be too. So I'm afraid you won't get a lot
out of us till the week of 6th March.
Sorry
Hi!
There is a bug in GHC's implementation of Time.toClockTime. For example,
the following program:
--
module Main where
import Time
t = toClockTime $ CalendarTime {
ctYear = 2000, ctMonth = February, ctDay = 9,
ctHour = 13, ctMin = 22, ctSec = 20, ctPicosec = 0,

Fine. So I'll go with the optional genRange proposal.
In general, the standard libraries have no name conflicts;
you can import them all at will. That's not the only

Here is a curiosity of the Haskell update mechanism;
you can map one type to another using it.
Consider this datatype and function...
data Foo a = Foo { foo :: a
, bar :: Int
} deriving Show
up s t = s { foo = t }
Now, what should the type of the function
Your example suggests that update was, perhaps, not the best choice
of terminology!
| data Foo a = Foo { foo :: a
|, bar :: Int

| up s t = s { foo = t }

| Now, what should the type of the function 'up' be?
