In 6.6.1, before any splitting, there were no hidden modules; all the GHC.* modules were exposed (in libraries/base/package.conf.in; base.cabal wasn't used by GHC's build system then, and we didn't have the conditional syntax to only list those modules when building for GHC). > But I think my question is answered: just use base < 5 or base == 4.* I didn't mean to answer the Big Question. I don't have strong feelings about it. I'd be happy with that answer, though. My main worry with it would be that people would do likewise for other packages.
