Re: cvs commit: hugs98/libraries Prelude.hs

Having multiple modules under the Prelude makes it possible to share more with the hierarchical libraries. I was using the Prelude out of fptools/libraries/base, so at startup Hugs loads

{Hugs}/libraries/Hugs/Base.hs

...dozen modules deleted..

{Hugs}/libraries/Prelude.hs

That also makes it possible to cut about 100 lines from Hugs.Base, and remove some #ifndef __HUGS__ stuff from fptools/libraries.

..forcing all users to pay for this very slight internal improvement by way of increased startup times each time Hugs is loaded. Didn't/doesn't look like a Win to me. --sigbjorn
