Comment:

 Fixed in HEAD and 6.10:
 {{{
 Fri Feb 27 18:00:29 GMT 2009  Ian Lynagh <[email protected]>
   * z-encode digits at the start of a symbol name; fixes trac #2997
   Digits already have a couple of meanings in z-encoding (Z3T is a tuple,
   and z123U is a unicode character), so we encode digits as unicode
   characters to avoid trying to squeeze in another meaning.

   Also removed a little GHC < 6.2 compatibility hack.
