The doc of base-4.5:Foreign.ForeignPtr.addForeignPtrFinalizer states:
"This function adds a finalizer to the given foreign object. The finalizer will run before all other finalizers for the same object which have already been registered."


I do

  addForeignPtrFinalizer finalize1 fp
  addForeignPtrFinalizer finalize2 fp

and let the finalizers print something when they are started.
I get the output:

  finalizer1
  finalizer2

This indicates that the newly added finalizer is run _after_ the finalizers that are already registered. Is this a documentation bug or a bug in the base library?
