temp hack to make contents disappear

Hmm.  Merge in stuff from before-ghci-branch that CVS refused to merge before.

more BCO# wibbles

Conversion of unlinked BCOs to linked BCOs.

ASSERT that we have the right number of arguments when building a
constructor, to avoid repeats of today's extended debugging session.

Add a special case in doDiscard for the sequence '"'.  The
bootstrapped compiler can now build ghc/lib/std.

Don't eta reduce something we just saturated.  (D'oh!)

This fixes the problem which causes a bootstrapped HEAD compiler to
crash.

add BCOzh

nuke getBCOPtrszh

fix arg tys for newBCO#, and delete all other BCO related primops

Change from 3-component to 4-component representation for BCOs

itbl renaming wibbles

more interpreter itbl hackery

itbl renaming wibbles

Add info tables to do compiled->interpreted returns and vice versa.
Rename various stuff from ...Hugs... to ...Interp...

So long, dudes!  It's been Real (tm).

Clarify itbl and linking issues for bcos, and add flag -ddump-bcos.

don't mess with $(MKDEPENDHS)

$(MKDEPENDHS) = $(GHC), not $(HC).

Wrap entire file in #ifdef GHCI, to create link errors if malconfigured

import wibbles

BarfKind --> GhcException

add HsForeignPtr

Fix a broken regexp

Track renaming of newCharArray# to newByteArray#

Take a pass over the tests, get most things working again.  Mostly
-package lang changes, and synching up of the expected output.

This was a good exercise though: I found at least two real bugs in the
process :)

Oops!  Don't forget to remove type variables from the binders of a
case alternative when converting to STG.

track changes in ByteCodeGen.lhs

More assembler work.  Mostly done.  Still need to import itbl stuff
from old interpreter.  Must remember to order new hair to replaced all
I tore out today.

error message wibble

Get the assembler infrastructure more or less correct.

Add missing default case from isSpecial

-noC has been removed

wibble: get the exception handlers round the right way

Clean up the error handling a bit; the exception type is moved to
Panic, and a new exception for panics has been added.

turn off recompilation checking in here

Allow for compiling to .hc only (substitute for now-defunct -noC option)

Make the foreign export dynamic helper function "exported", so it
doesn't get thrown away.

- Add primops for {read,write,index}{Int,Word}{8,16,32,64}OffAddr.
    This enables us to remove all the _casm_s from Int/Word.

  - Replace new{Char,Int,etc.}Array# with newByteArray# (save a few primops,
    at the cost of having to know the size of these types in PrelArr).

  - Implement MArray/IArray support for sized types.  finally.

  - Move the guts of the sized types into ghc/lib/std, we'll need
    them for doing more FFIish things in the Prelude.

Treat an unhandled exception in the same way as a panic (i.e. the
`impossible' happened), to make it clear that these really are
compiler bugs.
