Thanks for the info; I wonder if this is a good or a bad sign
regarding STM's future within Haskell? Is it so big and self-contained
to deserve its own external package, or is it so little used that it
does not belong to into the "standard" libraries? Did I miss an
announcement about restructuring and cleaning up the Haskell
hierarchical libraries?

And btw: the Links on
http://www.haskell.org/haskellwiki/Software_transactional_memory
referring to the API documentation are broken.
