fix HC bootstrapping after LibsReadline no longer has the -l prefixes.

Inline instance dictionary functions.
Remove {-# INLINE instance #-} support and uses.

Add some {-# SCC #-} annotations, and fix a space leak.

SCC notes move inside other notes.

Fix the inlining bug: exprIsConApp_maybe didn't recognize constructor
applications inside notes.

I'm not sure if it's the right place to fix. Should notes be ignored
in other uses of collectArgs? Perhaps they should be ignored inside
the loop of collectArgs? And why the function marked as inline was
not inlined even though it's not a constructor application?

Remove instructions about making /etc/passwd, as it happens automatically
when installing Cygwin.

Say not to install the cygwin package, rather than to install it.

Plumb LibsReadline into extra_libraries for -package util, rather than
extra_ld_opts, so that GHCi knows to load them too.

o=>O:-)

Fix typo

Fix minor typo in generics stuff; could merge with branch

add -fwarn-misc.

document -fwarn-misc.

The convention for warnings currently is: standard warnings indicate
"probable bugs", whereas -W warnings indicate "style problems".
I think -fwarn-misc is more suited to -W.

Added cygwin to list of required packages, and said why gdbm is needed (for
CVS).

HSnet_cbits R.I.P.
(BTW, that's what I meant with "monolithic approach" :-)

Fix test so that it doesnt use undecidable instances

-----------------------------
	Better filtering for warnings
	-----------------------------

* Add Opt_WarnMisc, to enable warnings not otherwise covered by Opt_Warn*
  in the renamer

* Add RnMonad.ifOptRn :: DynFlag -> RnM d a -> RnM d ()
  and use it many places instead of the clumsy direct code

Add comments in tcInstType

Improve error message

Makefile.config should be in a source dist.

better "#define IN_STG_CODE 0" before including the standard HC header
in a foreign export dynamic stub, because this isn't really HC code.

Fix the documentation about the -i<dirs> option.  These are scanned
left to right, but before the package directories.  Also add a
suitably severe warning about having a module with the same name as a
package module.

Reverse the directory list when building the home package directory
cache, so that earlier entries override later ones.

Improve error message

Add a rank-2 poly test

Add gdbm to list of Cygwin packages needed for building from CVS.

Cosmetics.

Enable primop rules - they work now.

Add a builtin rule to a primop only if it does something.

Fix the bug that source rules of primops shadowed builtin rules: let
extendRuleBase take the old rules from the id passed as the argument
when the id is absent in RuleBase.

I hope this is correct: I don't know what difference can be between
the id passed as extendRuleBase's argument and the id found in RuleBase.

Also use standard isJust, isNothing instead of non-standard
Maybes.maybeToBool.

Remove bogus comment.

Checking 0..0x10FFFF range can be done by a single unsigned comparison.

Add various rules for primops (x# <=# x#, x# *# 1# etc.).

But they are commented out for now. Please uncomment parts marked
with XXX when the bug with source primop rules shadowing builtin
primop rules is fixed.

Add builtin rules for {intToInt,wordToWord}{8,16,32}# applied to literals.

When configuring GMP, restrict to the 486 instruction set.  Doing otherwise
produces GMPs which expect to run on the P6 core on which they were built,
and so die with Illegal Instruction exceptions on Pentium (P5) and 486s.

Avoid pattern match failure in getValidLinkable.maybe_old_linkable.

merge rev 1.69.2.1, which was:
Remove x86-specific implementation of {intToInt,wordToWord}{8,16,32}#
primops, and replace them with platform-independent versions expressed
purely in Stix terms.

merge rev 1.63.2.2, which was:
Remove x86-specific implementation of {intToInt,wordToWord}{8,16,32}#
primops, and replace them with platform-independent versions expressed
purely in Stix terms.
