Just to keep a note of this, GHC HEAD was recently modified to fix Trac #5846 in commit ghc/packages-base@05cf0016f - there's now a function to check for GC stats, and...

See also https://github.com/tibbe/ekg-core/pull/35/commits/813aa426be78e8abcf1c7cdd43433bcffa07828e (& #35) which basically gets to the core of it: zero is not the identity for the `Min`/`Max` monoids, `maxBound`/`minBound` are! As expected, this same bug occurs...

I'm tentatively moving this into scope on the initial 0.2 release, because I imagine this use will pop up pretty quick and it'd be good to have something people can...

The @dcoutts and @thoughtpolice method to Software Success™ is clear at this point: - Think really hard, write a lot of code. - Finally release that code after several years....

(In all seriousness though, this would be useful to tackle soon-ish, so I might do this while @dcoutts continues working on #62)
