#5607: base is not trusted by default

By default base doesn't appear to be trusted. I was asked to modify XHTML
so that it would be trusted on post-7.0.1 compilers.
As a result XHTML won't compile on 7.2.1 out of the box and therefore
hackage thinks it is broken and won't generate any Haddock markup.
I thought (and had been given to understand though the grapevine) that
this was an oversight/bug in 7.2.1 but 7.2.2rc1 also has the same
behavior.
So should base be trusted by default? If so then what about the sources of
the core modules registered with hackage? Should they not be marked as
trusted, or should the professed trustworthiness be put on a flag?
