stackoverflow is another good place to ask.

You could extend my solution pretty easily to work for arbitrary size.

It doesn't come up that much.  It comes up here with your foldl, with
Chans, modifyIORef, modifySTRef, and a few things like that.  But most
of the time you want a lazy version until you spot a space leak.  Most
of the time the library creator notices and makes a strict version as
needed.  One of the nice things about Haskell is that you get a choice
between lazy and strict, and lazy by default is nice in many ways.
Space leaks like this are not usually show stoppers for experienced
Haskell folks.

Good luck!
Jason
