/* mkFixStrictness */
# This is a hack used to restore laziness on some option definitions.
# Some option definitions are evaluated when they are not used. This
# error is caused by the strictness of type checking builtins. Builtins
# like 'isAttrs' are too strict because they have to evaluate their
# arguments to check if the type is correct. This evaluation, cause the
# strictness of properties.
#
# Properties can be stacked on top of each other. The stackability of
# properties on top of the option definition is nice for user manipulation
# but require to check if the content of the property is not another
# property. Such testing implies to verify if this is an attribute set
# and if it possess the type 'property'. (see isProperty & typeOf)
#
# To avoid strict evaluation of option definitions, 'mkFixStrictness' is
# introduced. This property protects an option definition by replacing
# the base of the stack of properties by 'mkNotDef', when this property is
# evaluated it returns the original definition.
#
# This property is useful over any elements which depends on options which
# are raising errors when they get evaluated without the proper settings.
#
# Plain list and attribute set are lazy structures, which means that the
# container gets evaluated but not the content. Thus, using this property
# on top of plain list or attribute set is pointless.
#
# This is a Hack, you should avoid it!
# This property has a long name because you should avoid it.
