[Haskell-cafe] STM, newArray, and a stack overflow?

[Ketil Malde]

Hi,

I'm seeing some weirdness here.  My code does this:

    omap <- atomically $ (newArray_ (0,n-1) :: STM (TArray Int Int))

This gives a stack overflow when n is one million.  The equivalent code
in the ST monad doesn't show this behavior, and works as expected.

I'm not sure what is going on here, so I thought I'd ask in case anybody
can put me on the right track.
