With much gratitude to everybody who put up with my incessant CoreSyn
questions, I'd like to announce "very early preview" availability of
-XModalTypes and GHC.GArrow, mainly in order to collect feedback.

Information on the extensions to allow modal types and flatten them into
GArrow terms is here:

  http://www.cs.berkeley.edu/~megacz/garrows/

Information on how I use Coq to write GHC passes can be found here:

  http://www.cs.berkeley.edu/~megacz/coq-in-ghc/

More details will arrive over the course of the next week, but
feedback/advice is most welcome (either here or off-list).  If you're
itching to actually try compiling some programs, I suggest waiting until
Monday; there are still a bunch of quirks to be ironed out.

The -XModalTypes extension and flattening pass are the main focus and
are what I will be working on most intensely over the next three weeks;
the coq-in-ghc bit was mostly a means to an end.

Thanks again to everybody who helped me figure out GHC's guts!
(especially Dimitrios and SPJ).
