update for GHC 5.00

integralEnumFrom*To don't need Bounded.

Allow specifying output filenames explicitly.
Add -D --define option.

Transform *.hsc into *.hs and optionally Hs*.h  and Hs*.c
(used to be          *.hs and optionally *.hs.h and *.hs.c).

Old names interacted badly with Makefile rules of the form
'%: %.o' and looked ugly.

Fix Enum instances for types larger than Int.

Typo.

HS_CHAR_MAX is 0x10FFFF.

Cleaning up error reporting, 2nd attempt.

  - The UserError name is already bagged by Exception (for
    userErrors).  So we use ProgramError instead, which is
    more appropriate.

  - some previously UserErrors are now CmdLineErrors.  GHCi
    catches CmdLineErrors and prints them without the "ghc: "
    prefix.

Clean up GHC's error reporting

  - the GhcException type has some more constructors: CmdLineError,
    ProgramError, and InstallationError.  OtherError has gone.

  - most error messages should begin with "<location>:".  When the
    error is on the command-line or in GHC itself, <location> is
    "ghc", for consistency with std Unix semantics.

add performGC

use newStablePtr instead of deprecated makeStablePtr.

add a simple test for IOExts.performGC

Add a simple test for performGC.

remove this outdated, nonworking test

Use fromIntegral instead of fromInt/toInt.

Marcin: this test shows up some problems with enumFrom & friends on
the sized Integral types.  Could you take a look?  Cheers.

- Note the difference in the size of Char between GHC & Haskell 98.

- Don't lie about support for arbitrary-sized tuples.

- Just for fun, document some of the more obscure differences between
  GHC syntax and Haskell 98.

maxBound :: Char is 0x10ffff now.

update expected output

fix some test problems

fix a cache problem with the Happy configure macro.

  - GHCi no longer prints a superfluous "ghc: " before certain error
    messages.

Document the use of :set with command-line options a little better.

Cpr needs the correct arity for an imported function.  In some cases
the arity reported in the interface can be too small.

In this test case the function is returning a newtype,  and the newtype
is hiding a function.  The arity in the interface file says 0.  It is
triggered by compiling the cpr001.hs test files with profiling on. The code
comes from a bug report.

I should look for a better case,  because the profiling flaw which reveals
this problem will hopefully go away some time.

CmdLineOpts:
	- add dopt_set and dopt_unset utils.

InteractiveUI:
	- unset -fwarn-unused-binds before evaluating a statement,
	  to avoid bogus warnings about new bindings.

Make it work on Windows with recent GCCs.

Tweaks to make it work a bit better.

shell-wrapper for ghc-pkg.

- add --show-package option to display the config info for a particular
  package.

- add --field info, for use with --show-package, which displays the
  contents of the given field in the package config only.  The field
  is displayed one string per line.

Print minimal import operators correctly

- add ghc-pkg-$(ProjectVersion) and ghc-pkg-inplace scripts
- add ghc-pkg script link
- rename ghc-pkg to ghc-pkg.bin and put it in $(libdir)
- remove the hacky passing of $(libdir) to the binary

updates to work with GHC 5, I hope...

non-absolute paths didn't work.

complain if the -B<dir> flag is missing.

we don't have a default TopDir any more.

Config.hs no longer contains any absolute directories.  The only
absolute directory it knows about is always passed in from the
mini-driver in the -B<dir> flag.

This setup is pretty fragile for booting from .hc anyway because
Config.hs contains platform-specific info, but it'll work enough to
get the compiler booted.

use fewer absolute paths

fixes for linking the compiler
