1. What is "ghc-core"?

You actually answer this question as part of question 2. Think of it
as simple Haskell with some additional bits.

I rephrase: I know what GHC's Core language is. But Dons said "I suggest you install ghc-core", which suggests the existence of an item of software named "ghc-core". This I know nothing about...

Any time someone mentions something that sounds like a Haskell package, http://hackage.haskell.org is your friend.

And there I find, in the Development category:

ghc-core program: Display GHC's core and assembly output in a pager


IIRC it's just a prettyprinter/colorizer to make it easier to follow and understand GHC Core.
