Perhaps Prelude.hi could, instead of storing a *list* of orphan modules, store all the orphan instances themselves? Obviously that would waste a bit more space (less now that instances don't contain big function bodies in the HEAD; more because RULES can be orphan too, and numerous). Would it be any faster loading or is it just a bad idea? :-)
I don't see a performance issue, and if there is one a ticket should be created for it (since there a sometimes good reasons for orphaned modules -- and good reasons to avoid them, too!) Cheers Christian
