Yes, we considered this technique, but we came to the conclusion that it 
is not applicable in our setting: we are writing directly to malloc'ed 
memory, so our operations are strict in the label parameter. Thus, the 
fixpoint of the recursive mdo would be bottom.

However, these were (up to now) only theoretical thoughts, maybe our 
hypothesis of strict operations can be weakened.

Kind regards,
