I think all that is happening is that Native is being renamed to Kernel to
reduce confusion. At the moment when we say 'Elm' and 'native' in the same
sentence we could mean an Elm Native module used to implement its kernel,
or native javascript code through ports.
I can't be certain of the details but I think your function would just be
re-written as:
var _user$project$Kernel_Msgpack = function() { ... }
But you won't be able to publish it officially and will have to use
elm-github-install.
It makes sense to me anyway, the 'kernel' needs to be carefully managed as
the language takes shape.
