remove export lists, introduce public/private modifiers

And it nicely deals with re-exporting imported entities: public imports get reexported, private ones don't.

note though that the public/private thing in Java also refers to the "package" concept, which is missing from Haskell (this is worked around at the language level by re-exporting modules, and at the tool level by Cabal - both kludgy, methinks). -- -- Johannes Waldmann -- Tel/Fax (0341) 3076 6479/80 -- ---- http://www.imn.htwk-leipzig.de/~waldmann/ -------
