me too. which is why I made jhc search for System.IO.Unsafe in System/IO/Unsafe.hs System/IO.Unsafe.hs System.IO.Unsafe.hs in that order. It would be nice if other implementations did this too, but it is not the sort of thing that belongs in a language spec. > So, please, to the extent possible, let's keep the file system > out of the Haskell' definition!
