You can see the result in at least half the packages on Hackage: upper versions came in when base got broken up, and when bytestring was merged into base --- both of which caused massive breakage that apparently even the people around at the time and involved with it no longer remember. I'm not going to argue the point though; ignore history and remove them if you desire. -- brandon s allbery allber...@gmail.com wandering unix systems administrator (available) (412) 475-9364 vm/sms
