Comment (by carter):

 thanks! This is pretty great, I think some of the issues have been
 resolved in GHC head (wrt signum being wrong), but I'll take a look at
 trying to understand the rest.

 What GHC version and OS and flags did you use to run the program? (so i
 can try to reproduce this later?)
