Comment:

 Done
 {{{
 Sun Mar  1 19:51:43 GMT 2009  Duncan Coutts <duncan at haskell.org>
   * Make die use an IOError that gets handled at the top level
   Rather than printing the error there and then and throwing an
   exit exception. The top handler now catches IOErrors and
   formats and prints them before throwing an exit exception.
   Fixes ticket #512.
