Comment(by tibbe):
I actually think the way it used to work was OK. If you wanted to depend
on a particular implementation you could import e.g.
`GHC.Integer.GMP.Internals`. I agree in principle that the (internal)
module dependencies were a bit wacky, but it seems hard to avoid them
given the requirements of `PrelNames` to name a module exported by all
integer-* packages and require that this module must define the data type
in question, instead of just re-export it.
