Another question is where in the package hierarchy would this function live. Since the code it would use is in the ghc package, it would introduce a dependency on it. And I am fairly sure that there is no package in the standard ghc distribution which depends on the ghc package. Ian, can it be made to live in ghc-prim without creating a dependency on the ghc package?
I'm not sure I understand the question. If it needs to use functions in the ghc package then it needs to be in a package that depends on the ghc package, but ghc depends on ghc-prim, so it can't be in there. Thanks Ian
