How about resolving http://cvs.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/690 ? I would like to simple add a flag to ghc. How about adding an addional phase (and extension) to ghc before preprocessing? Your solution does not support good readability. Is there a ready tool that converts my source files as you suggested automatically? How does haddock handle characters in comments?
