Remove ability to use ghc-binary
There have been a couple of cases recently where people have been using the ghc-binary
package. We should either:
- ship
binary
instead. Then people can legitimately use it, and as a bonus, as GHC moves to usingbinary
theBinary
instances for GHC's types will become available - Add something to GHC to allow us to really hide packages, so people can't use it
We'll have to make some sort of decision about hoopl
, too.
