Comment:
(affects all os/arch.) I'm still interested, although more cautiously so
than when I reported it. Simon's point about "module signatures" could go
along with work that essentially integrates hs-boot information into a .hs
file (and is worthy work on its own). My wish that multiple modules could
be compiled in one unit is complicated quite a bit more than I suggested
in the description, by the many per-module language extensions that
sometimes change semantics in a conflicting way (and reducing the amount
of arbitrarily per-module / per-typechecking-unit extension stuff in some
way, might be a good thing on its own too).
