Do you have an concrete example which illustrates this point?
[...] consider a file A.hs that defines some data type T and exports a function "f" that is defined in terms of a private function "g". Now if we place "g" in a file called "Private.hs" then A needs to import Private, but also "Private" needs to import "A" for the definition of "T".
Ah, now it see it! Great example. But couldn't you just put T in "Foo/Base.hs", g in "Foo/Private.hs", then create "Foo/API.hs" which imports "Foo/Base.hs" and "Foo/Private.hs", and leave f in "A.hs" and import "Foo/API.hs"? Peter
