Mon Dec 8 17:54:41 GMT 2008 Duncan Coutts * Check for use of deprecated extensions Mon Dec 8 18:00:18 GMT 2008 Duncan Coutts * Fake support for NamedFieldPuns in ghc-6.8 Implement it in terms of the -XRecordPuns which was accidentally added in ghc-6.8 and deprecates in 6.10 in favor of NamedFieldPuns So this is for compatability so we can tell package authors always to use NamedFieldPuns instead. }}} The last patch is also in the Cabal-1.6 branch so will appear in 1.6.0.2. -- Ticket URL: http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/hackage/ticket/340#comment:1 Hackage http://haskell.org/cabal/ Hackage: Cabal and related projects
