Comment (by dfranke):

 Actually there's a significant drawback to depending on MTL: it depends on
 multi-parameter typeclasses, whereas Parsec is currently portable.

 I vote for accepting the patch anyway, though.  Until such time as a
 Haskell compiler other than GHC  becomes suitable for developing
 production code, I'll have trouble accepting h98-compliance as a
 justification for omitting what is otherwise a worthwhile feature.
