Hi Shayne, Sorry to hear that! We didn't consider modularity at all and I would be happy to try to refactor in a way that would allow `ghc-lib-parser` to be properly separated again. I'm fairly certain that I didn't directly touch anything parser related, but apparently the new cyclic import of PmOracle within TcRnTypes (which is also exposed from `ghc-lib-parser`) pulled in the other half of GHC. I'll see if I can fix that tomorrow, if only by extracting a separate `Types`-style module.
