containers-0.3.0.0 should build with older GHCs. It would be much easier to manage if we could just require a newer containers: maintaining those macros is a fair amount of work. Is that allowed, or is it too great a concern that this adds one more dependency to fetch for users with older GHCs?
It isn't: Cabal is the only library that comes with GHC that you should upgrade as otherwise you get diamond dependency problems (which is why "cabal upgrade" is currently disabled). -- Ivan Lazar Miljenovic Ivan.Miljenovic@gmail.com IvanMiljenovic.wordpress.com
