The library situation is more complicated, there is tension between haskell 98, haskell 2010, and supporting code in the wild, which often assumes some specific version of ghc's base, which doesn't quite conform to either. My current thinking is to give up supporting base directly as a clone of ghc's and rather support just haskell 98 and haskell 2010 modes "natively", then compatability libraries (called things like ghc-base-4 and ghc-base-3 perhaps) would be independent projects and not tied to jhc releases.
