+SLPJ 95/04: Why @runST@ must be inlined very late:
+\begin{verbatim}
+f x =
+ runST ( \ s -> let
+ (a, s') = newArray# 100 [] s
+ (_, s'') = fill_in_array_or_something a x s'
+ in
+ freezeArray# a s'' )
+\end{verbatim}
+If we inline @runST@, we'll get:
+\begin{verbatim}
+f x = let
+ (a, s') = newArray# 100 [] realWorld#{-NB-}
+ (_, s'') = fill_in_array_or_something a x s'
+ in
+ freezeArray# a s''
+\end{verbatim}
+And now the @newArray#@ binding can be floated to become a CAF, which
+is totally and utterly wrong:
+\begin{verbatim}
+f = let
+ (a, s') = newArray# 100 [] realWorld#{-NB-} -- YIKES!!!
+ in
+ \ x ->
+ let (_, s'') = fill_in_array_or_something a x s' in
+ freezeArray# a s''
+\end{verbatim}
+All calls to @f@ will share a {\em single} array!
+
+Yet we do want to inline runST sometime, so we can avoid
+needless code. Solution: black list it until the last moment.
