Btw, have any of the Haskell array optimization researchers
considered fixpoints yet?
This, for instance, is a very nice paper:

However, in the context of high-performance array programming explicit
recursion is bad because it is very hard if not impossible to
parallelise automatically except in fairly trivial cases. And if your
array program is not parallelisable then you don't really care about
performance all that much :-)
