I'm a bit worried that this patch is quite late and breaks users like Luite. Nevertheless, I am willing to hear arguments for merging. > What's the policy on adding hooks or GHC API tweaks after the freeze? > We'll need to work that out when we get to that point. It largely depends upon how confined and "safe" a change appears to be. That being said, given how much other churn has happened for this release, I don't think we want to be sloppy with merge discipline this time around. Austin, what do you think? Cheers, - Ben
