[Yes, that's true regardless. If `take' in plain `racket' stays as
is, then eventually the one in lazy will need to change. It just
happened to be the first thing that made me look at the order more
closely, and discover thet other issues. As another point, the
justification for the argument order in Haskell is not laziness but
its implicit currying -- so of course it shouldn't be a reason to make
lazy racket follow it.]
