IORefs?

[ocharles]

I'm unclear on exactly the scope of foundation, but should it expose IORefs? Or should I just import Data.IORef? I suppose I'm not clear as to whether I should import base modules or not.

iorefs is one of the many area that didn't get any thoughts yet; Vaguely the only thing I noted in this area is a primref that is not a box, but that's the extend of what I would like to have here apart from the actual iorefs and mvars.

For now, there's many stuff from base that can be used as is, like iorefs. ideally it would be nice to re-export everything we want properly in foundation, but it's quite a task.
