This gives us the flexibility to inspect the parsed declaration before execution. Using this we now inspect parsed declarations, and if it's a single declaration of form `x = y` we execute it as `let x = y` instead, fixing a ton of problems caused by poor declaration support in GHCi. To avoid any users of the modules I left `execStmt` and `runDecls` unchanged and added `execStmt'` and `runDecls'` which work on parsed statements/declarations. }}} -- Ticket URL: <http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/15721#comment:7> GHC <http://www.haskell.org/ghc/> The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
