When I put in Haskell98 this spring, I was under the mistaken
apprehension that ghc defaulted to that. But it actually its default
is a third mode, which is closer to Haskell2010 but with some differences.
The manual says "By default, GHC mainly aims to behave (mostly) like a
Haskell 2010 compiler"
Fixed two cases where the Haskell98 do indentation flexability let
wrongly indented code build. That is one of the places where
ghc does not behave like Haskell2010 by default.
The other place that I think I was concerned about, is GHC manual
section 19.1.1.3. Expressions and patterns. But that only seems to
affect code using bottoms, so would only affect pure functions throwing
an error, which I don't think git-annex does in many places as it's
pretty horrid style. And it would only affect rare cases like shown in
that section. If it did happen, it would mean that the error was not
thrown before specifying Haskell98, and then was. Haskell2010 behaves
the same as Haskell98.

The problem was this line:
cleanup = and <$> sequence (map snd v)
That caused all of v to be held onto until the end, when the cleanup action
was run.
I could not seem to find a bang pattern that avoided the leak, so I
resorted to a IORef, rather clunky, but not a performance problem because
it will only be written once per git ls-files, so typically just 1 time.

inet_addr was removed, but all this needs is localhost, so hardcoding it
should work fine.
It may be that this windows ifdef is no longer needed. It was added in 2013
with a note that getAddrInfo didn't work on windows, but it seems likely
such a problem would have been fixed since.
