@cristianoc Also it causes this error (see CI failure):

FAILED: src/recursive_module.cmj

  We've found a bug for you!
  /home/runner/work/***/***/tests/tests/src/recursive_module.res:29:5-31:1

  27 │ module rec Inta: {
  28 │   let a: Lazy.t<int>
  29 │ } = {
  30 │   let a = Lazy.make(() => Lazy.get(Intb.a))
  31 │ }
  32 │ and Intb: {
  33 │   let a: Lazy.t<int>

  Cannot safely evaluate the definition
  of the recursively-defined module Inta

even when I make line 30

  30 │   let a: Lazy.t<int> = Lazy.make(() => Lazy.get(Intb.a))

instead.

Half way there. A few comments on the hiccups encountered.

I think this is the difference: type lazy_t<+'a> with the +: covariant.

This is what would cause the recursive module test to fail.
I think that's fine, unless the recursive module example - with lazy - pattern is important to support.


%%private(external fnToVal: (unit => 'a) => 'a = "%identity")
%%private(external valToFn: 'a => unit => 'a = "%identity")
%%private(external castToConcrete: lazy_t<'a> => t<'a> = "%identity")

I don't think we can make lazy_t and t the same here, because lazy_t needs to be covariant and t is mutable. Also, the naming might change for clarity: currently lazy_t represents the type Lazy.t while t represents an internal implementation-only type used to generate specific js code (and cannot be exported as it would be unsound to export the mutable part anyway).

Overall, bringing lazy_t out of builtins seems to bring clarity, as it makes a few things more explicit.

Here's a quick set of changes, minus cleanup:
