{-|
  This is a combination of 'takeMVar' and 'putMVar'; ie. it takes the value
  from the 'MVar', puts it back, and also returns it.

readMVar m =
  block $ do
    a <- takeMVar m
    putMVar m a
    return a

{-|
  Take a value from an 'MVar', put a new value into the 'MVar' and
  return the value taken. Note that there is a race condition whereby
  another process can put something in the 'MVar' after the take
  happens but before the put does.

{-|
  'withMVar' is a safe wrapper for operating on the contents of an
  'MVar'.  This operation is exception-safe: it will replace the
  original contents of the 'MVar' if an exception is raised (see
  "Control.Exception").

{-|
  A safe wrapper for modifying the contents of an 'MVar'.  Like 'withMVar', 
  'modifyMVar' will replace the original contents of the 'MVar' if an
  exception is raised during the operation.

{-|
  A slight variation on 'modifyMVar_' that allows a value to be
  returned (@b@) in addition to the modified value of the 'MVar'.
