Template Haskell support for running functions defined in the same module (a.k.a. relaxing the stage restriction)
Currently TH has the following restriction:
You can only run a function at compile time if it is imported from another module. That is, you can't define a function in a module, and call it from within a splice in the same module.
This is a pain. It should be fixed.
See http://www.haskell.org/pipermail/template-haskell/2007-October/000619.html, for example.
