I agree. Is there any chance of 6.10.3 reverting the change?

Hi folks,
Apologies in advance because this sounds rantish...

Hi,
QuickCheck 1.x had this function:
evaluate :: Testable a => a -> Gen Result
which I used in TestPack to help wrap a QuickCheck test as a HUnit
test case. QuickCheck 2.x seems to have no pure evaluate-like
function at all; all of its functions are in the IO monad and also
write their result

Very nice!
I'm curious -- what specific variants of the tar format can it read and
write?
* PAX?
* GNU tar sparse files?
* POSIX ustar
* various pre-posix arch
