Replying to [comment:1 igloo]:
> Other than splitting up base (#1338), I'm not clear on exactly what you
want. Is it more rebindable syntax? For example, the wiki page you point
at says you want to replace Read, but I'm not sure exactly what you mean
by that. You can make a class called Read, but GHC isn't going to know how
to derive instances of it.

Well, this ghc-prim package I'm seeing in HEAD is a step in the direction
I meant ;-).
