Add Numeric library here for the time being. This is a combination of the H98 Numeric library and a few functions from GHC's NumExts.
But if you put extensions in an H98 file, it's hard for users to check if they're limiting themselves to the standard. Fix 1: Rename Numeric.hs to NumericInternals.hs (or anything else you like) and make Numeric.hs just import NumericInternals and re-export the standard. Fix 2: Generalise the DEPRECATED pragma. I prefer (1) (since it places the least burden on other compilers) but (2) has its attractions. -- Alastair Reid reid@cs.utah.edu http://www.cs.utah.edu/~reid/
