Comment (by rwbarton):

 `seq#` and some other primops don't get wrappers due to this filter in
 genprimopcode:

 {{{
         dodgy spec
            = name spec `elem`
              [-- C code generator can't handle these
               "seq#",
               "tagToEnum#",
               -- not interested in parallel support
               "par#", "parGlobal#", "parLocal#", "parAt#",
               "parAtAbs#", "parAtRel#", "parAtForNow#"
              ]
 }}}

 I'm not sure entirely what this is all about, but since the code is 14
 years old I'm just going to try deleting it and seeing if anything goes
 wrong.
