Comment (by zenzike):
Wouldn't it be better if these were written as
{{{
> #ifdef ENABLE_FOO
> ... foo ...
> #endif
}}}
instead?
It seems counter productive that in a literate file that there is no
allowance for # at the beginning of a line, without some special meaning
to ghc; since literate files should be, well, literate! If a CPP directive
should be fed through into ghc, wouldn't it be better on the end of a Bird
track?
In the meantime, is there a way of turning off the # as CPP directive
functionality?
