(a) is the API for GHC's Binary library acceptable, or do we need the extra bells and whistles that the NHC version has?

I would far prefer a library that is standard between the two compilers. As a user, I don't like using compiler-specific libraries unless absolutely necessary.

implementation? Perhaps performance isn't that important to the majority of people: please comment if you have an opinion.

Performance isn't the most important thing to me. Amanda
