I was going to ask "what is this HsBase.h of which you speak?"
But then I found it in packages/base/include.

However, it is not mentioned in System/Directory.hs, either as a
#include, or as a specifier on any FFI decl.  So how was I supposed to
know what header file to look for?

Even looking at HsBase.h, it appears to depend on other .h files which
do not exist (HsBaseConfig.h?).  I can only assume that the latter is
supposed to be created by some build system or other, but no-one has
ever taught the nhc98 build system to do so.
