-- | A slightly faster version of `System.IO.fixIO` that may not be
-- safe to use with multiple threads. The unsafety arises when used
-- like this:
--
-- > unsafeFixIO $ \r -> do
-- > forkIO (print r)
-- > return (...)
--
-- In this case, the child thread will receive a @NonTermination@
-- exception instead of waiting for the value of @r@ to be computed.
