Since Data.Ord and Data.Eq now have there on modules and are part of the prelude, I suggest to create Data.Function and put in "flip", "id", "const" (did I forget one?) and "on".

You forgot (.) and ($), which are already included.

Right, although I did look into your code I overlooked your re-export, because I expected the implementation of these function to be in the module whereas the prelude should re-export parts of it (Data.Function). However, the "true origin" of a function does not seem to matter and I don't know if Data.Ord re-exports parts of the Prelude or vice versa.

I didn't include seq, ($!) or asTypeOf.

Good, Christian
