Origins of the G-Machine

At the Sunday Times website, there is a very odd story about the recovery of
the Enigma machine stolen from Bletchley Park.

http://www.sunday-times.co.uk:80/news/pages/sti/2000/11/19/stinwenws02039.html

It includes this fun fact, which Haskellers may find of interest:

  Enigma machines vary and the official designation of this one is a Type G,
  or the G-machine; it was sometimes called the counter machine or
  "Zahlwerk-Enigma", because it has a letter counter.

Will this hinder the adoption of Haskell compiler technology in France and
Israel...?
