Comment:

 Can you still reproduce this? It seems to be working fine for me in 7.0.2
 and HEAD:

 {{{
 Prelude Control.Concurrent Data.Time.Clock.POSIX> do getPOSIXTime >>=
 print; threadDelay 1000000; getPOSIXTime >>= print
 1299355338.201281s

 }}}

 {{{

 print; threadDelay 1000000; getPOSIXTime >>= print
