Stricter enumFrom instance for Integer, to match Int
Stack overflow for enumFrom :: Integer (but not enumFromTo nor for Int).
main = print (head (drop 1000000 [1 .. ]))
Stack space overflow: current size 8388608 bytes.
Use `+RTS -Ksize' to increase it.Due to lazy accumulator for Integer enumFrom.
Patch and library ticket here:
It looks like it could be a GHC bug report instead of a library proposal (similar to the buildr/fold failures), so reporting it as a GHC issue.
