That will sure prevent ^S and ^Q having any effect, but it won't make
the bug go away. With other programs, e.g. if I run

seq 100000 | tee foo

and press ^S and then ^Q, then suspend and resume work as expected,
there is no freezing shortly after resume as I am observing with my
ghc-compiled program. The program should resume its output when ^Q is
pressed, rather than freezing.
