However this requires support for deprecating exports:
We can easily re-define functions, like
module Old where
import MyMod.Unsafe as Unsafe
{-# DEPRECATED "unsafeDoSomething" #-} unsafeDoSomething :: a -> b unsafeDoSomething = Unsafe.unsafeDoSomething
If you do that, then you can't do import Old import MyMod.Unsafe f = ... unsafeDoSomething ... as you will get an ambiguity error. (you can work around it, e.g. by using a qualified name to refer to unsafeDoSomething, but different people will have differing opinions about whether that's OK) Thanks Ian
