i'm not sure i understand - you want to rewrite these functions that are already implemented in Data.String? why? this is why hackage exists - so you don't have to rewrite these functions.
MissingH is well maintained by an experienced haskell coder and is easily installed from hackage, i don't see using it as an issue.
Sorry, I did not want to sound disrespectful towards anyone. I was just someone who wanted to use your package in a project of mine but was discouraged by the number and the nature of the needed dependencies. Please forget my patch and accept my apologies. Andrea BTW: if someone can point me towards a tool that will take care of installing all needed dependencies, keeping my tool chain updated and not messing up my file system in the long run (say 2 to 4 years: I'm using a quite clean slackware gnu/linux distribution installed in 2003 and regularly updated) I'd really appreciate.
