I'm a bit confused - what are you proposing we throw if we have a div-by-zero or unhandled-pattern? And the name CompileTimeException feels wrong to me.
Any idea how much of 'base' we'll be able to shrink away (or more importantly, whether it's so closely tied to the ghc-version that it might not be practical to make upgraded versions that work with older ghc?)
It's hard to tell without actually doing some of the work. Thanks Ian
