Log Message:
Hat: achieve a 30-40% speed-up in running traced programs.
This improvement is mainly due to moving work from Haskell to C.
We were already storing certain triples of trace information
(file ptr, trustedness, hiddenness) as a C struct, but continuing
to use trivial access/construction functions in Haskell. Here, we
remove all uses of the triples to C, and use only higher-level calls
in Haskell.
As a biproduct, the change of type from data Trace to newtype Trace
must be rippled through all of the standard .T.hi files.
