Comment (by duncan):
Isn't this exactly what the language extensions given with the -X flags
do? I was under the impression that as of ghc-6.8 there are no ghc
extensions that are enabled just by -fglasgow-exts and don't have a
specific language extension and corresponding -X flag.
Were you thinking of any extensions in particular? Unboxed tuples uses the
`UnboxedTuples` language extension, ie the `-XUnboxedTuples` ghc flag or a
pragma `{#- LANGUAGE UnboxedTuples -#}` at the top of the module source
file.
