Tried them? Any comments? Advice? Questions?
Oh, sorry. I have been prettty busy the last bit so have not gotten a chance to look too critically at them yet. I am going to add them in, but I am holding off on the patches adding stuff taken from ghc base to the standard libraries because I am working on a method to build those directly out of the ghc repo now so we don't need to replicate a lot of code.
That's a mighty fine excuse ;-). Btw, I hope your method involves GHC's base package keeping the proper name, because without the name "base" on the "base" package, Cabal has little hope of working. (Did you know that Cabal is supposed to have JHC support? Neither did I, until dcoutts mentioned that I was welcome to fix the JHC support since he hadn't been able to test it...)
