Alas, this is rather more broken than I'm likely to want to deal with at
this stage:  I get

src/FastPackedString.hs:146:17:
    Could not find module `Data.ByteString.Internal':
      Use -v to see a list of the files searched for.

presumably because I don't have bytestring installed.  I think a more
cautious approach would be in order, allowing us to optionally compile with
bytestring, using our existing code as a fallback.

At a minimum, we probaly can't use the bytestring lines or unlines.

Thanks for the contribution Eric, but I don't think this is something I can
take up right now.  Is anyone else interested? I could help with the
configure.ac work if someone expects to have time to do the actual
conversion.
