heads up: GHC gets a new constraint solver (again)

Friends, After a very busy period of hard work with Simon, we've re-engineered GHCs constraint solver and I just pushed a big patch on master along with modifications in the testsuite. The new constraint solver is based on the existing in its core ideas but is shorter, much cuter, and for many programs much faster (for others performance is roughly the same) If you had a program that was taking very long to compile in the past, we'd be very interested to see how this reengineered constraint solver performs on it. Same if you spot problems or notable regressions. Thanks, enjoy! Dimitrios
