[Haskell-cafe] synchronous channels in STM

I was wondering if it was possible to implement synchronous channels
within STM. In particular, I'd like to have CSP-like send and recv primitives
on a channel that each block until the other side arrives to complete
the transaction.

I think I've convinced myself that it's not possible, but
anyone care to differ?

  cheers,
    rog.
