Cool, is it implemented in 2.8? Function tagging seems promising for
performance. But it isn't implementable in JavaScript :)

I have one more question. There are know calls (saturated
applications) and unknown calls in STG. Is this information is encoded
in GHC's STG datatype or should I maintain my own table of known
functions.
