Allow unboxed tuples with zero components in unfoldings, CPR seems to
generate them occasionally (perhaps it shouldn't - there is very
little difference between returning () and (# #)).

Crude allocation-counting extension to ticky-ticky profiling.
Allocations are counted against the closest lexically enclosing
function closure, so you need to map the output back to the STG code.

Try and make finding of Prelude libraries for hugs a bit saner.
Guess (badly) the absolute pathname to the hugs executable, and

While fiddling around with concurrency & exceptions this afternoon, I
realised an important property of raiseInThread: it is synchronous.
The exception is raised immediately, and doesn't sit in some queue
somewhere waiting to be raised at a later date.
This is important if you have eg. two threads that can kill each
other. We can guarantee that only one of the threads gets to kill the
other, under no circumstances can there be two killThreads fired in
opposite directions at the same time.
Documented this.
