Newtype representation

		Merge to STABLE

This commit fixes a long-standing bug (simple clerical error) in mkNewTyConRep,
which for some reason had gone un-discovered for years.

tc183 tests it.

- re-initalise cap on returning from STG land, because we might now
  have a different capability.  ToDo: we should pass it back somehow,
  rather than looking it up in the hash table

- export unblockOneLocked (we'll need this later)

Reinstate __stginit_Foo functions even when they don't do anything, because
they are part of the documented interface (as discussed on cvs-ghc, Apr 26).

Clean up things by making PicBaseReg a constructor of GlobalReg instead
of CmmExpr.

Include Cabal documentation in the RPM

Fixed previous commit

replace emptyNodeMap with old_summary_map.

gcc 4.0.0 fix: don't declare static total_prof_ticks as extern

gcc 4.0.0 fix: don't declare static static_objects as extern

gcc 4.0.0 fix: avoid casted expression as lvalue

Add undocumented :check command, for testing GHC.checkModule

Add debug_s way

Export nameModule

Fixed install-docs

summariseFile: use a cached summary if one is available.  Previously
we always preprocessed modules named by filename on each reload.

Have SplitObjs=YES by default only on i386, powerpc and sparc.
Lowers the barrier to porting just a little.

Fix bad interaction between operators and higher-rank types
Fixes Source bug #1200592 [GHC fails to pass dictionary in a rank-2 situation]

	Merge to STABLE

A start on a commentary section about the threaded/SMP runtime.  This
will replace the old section which is a bit out of date now.

Added a new section that describes GHC's hybrid type representation
`TypeRep.Type' and it's friends.  This sufficiently subtle and GHC-specific
that it warrants extra treatment outside of the section on type checking.

C89ify recent change

SMP: we need to assign the result of resumeThread to BaseReg, because
we might now have a new Capability.  (this was an interesting bug to find...)

Declare checkNurserySanity()

Fix more bugginess in allocateLocal().

Another large block fix.

allocating a large block: bump the block count on the nursery step,
rather than the global alloc_blocks counter.  Also, change the
heap-full check to be "nursery full" rather than
alloc_blocks>=alloc_blocks_lim.

allocateLocal(): bump the block count on the step, not the global
alloc_blocks count.

SMP: add a missing insertHashTable()

restore rev. 1.189, which appears to have been spammed in
rev. 1.190 (my fault, by the looks of it).

Fix double-linking bug in new allocateLocal(), and fix one warning

ocResolve_PEi386(): updated comment re: REL32/DISP32 relocations

Two SMP-related changes:

  - New storage manager interface:

    bdescr *allocateLocal(StgRegTable *reg, nat words)

    which allocates from the current thread's nursery (being careful
    not to clash with the heap pointer).  It can do this without
    taking any locks; the lock only has to be taken if a block needs
    to be allocated.  allocateLocal() is now used instead of allocate()
    in a few PrimOps.

    This removes locks from most Integer operations, cutting down
    the overhead for SMP a bit more.

    To make this work, we have to be able to grab the current thread's
    Capability out of thin air (i.e. when called from GMP), so the
    Capability subsystem needs to keep a hash from thread IDs to
    Capabilities.

  - Small MVar optimisation: instead of taking the global
    storage-manager lock, do our own locking of MVars with a bit of
    inline assembly (x86 only for now).
