93[Windows: map ERROR_NO_DATA to EPIPE, rather than EINVAL
94Simon Marlow <marlowsd@gmail.com>**20100915142618
95 Ignore-this: 9023e5f0542419f225aef26cb6b1d88d
96 WriteFile() returns ERROR_NO_DATA when writing to a pipe that is
97 "closing", however by default the write() wrapper in the CRT maps this
98 to EINVAL so we get confusing things like
99 
100   hPutChar: invalid argument (Invalid Argumnet)
101 
102 when piping the output of a Haskell program into something that closes
103 the pipe early.  This was happening in the testsuite in a few place.
104 
105 The solution is to map ERROR_NO_DATA to EPIPE correctly, as we
106 explicitly check for EPIPE on stdout (in GHC.TopHandler) so we can
107 exit without an error in this case.

120     * Make absent-arg wrappers work for unlifted types (fix Trac #4306)

304   http://www.haskell.org/pipermail/libraries/2010-April/013420.html
305 
306 This is a replacement for block/unblock in the asychronous exceptions
307 API to fix a problem whereby a function could unblock asynchronous
308 exceptions even if called within a blocked context.
309 
310 The new terminology is "mask" rather than "block" (to avoid confusion
311 due to overloaded meanings of the latter).
312 
313 The following is the new API; the old API is deprecated but still
314 available for the time being.

733 The performance bug in #3245 was caused by computing the typeRep
734 once for each call of typeOf, rather than once for each dictionary
735 contruction.  (Computing TypeReps is reasonably expensive, because
736 of the hash-consing machinery.)
737 
738 This is readily fixed by putting the TypeRep construction outside
739 the lambda.  (Arguably GHC might have worked that out itself,
740 but it involves floating something between a type lambda and a
741 value lambda, which GHC doesn't currently do. If it happens a lot
742 we could fix that.)

939 Strictly speaking this breaks Haskell 98 compatibility, which requires

941 encountered.  However, for a few reasons we think it will make
942 everyone's life a bit easier if we make this change
943 
944  1. Errors will be a lot more common in GHC 6.12.1, in the form
945     of Unicode decoding errors.
946 
947  2. When Haskell 98 was designed, we didn't know how to throw
948     exceptions from inside lazy I/O, but now we do.
949 
950  3. If anyone is actually relying on the previous behaviour, their
951     code is arguably broken.

1151 necessarily the case when the buffer corresponds to a memory-mapped
1152 file, or other in-memory device implementation.

1272 This only makes a difference when CHARBUF_UTF16 is in use, which it

1275 GHC.IO.Encoding.UTF* codecs), but this patch at least makes it
