Comment(by simonpj):
Yes, your diagram is right, except that the arrow from .hi to Iface Core
should be labelled `iface/BinIface` as well; `BinIface` does
deserialisation as well a serialisation.
And rather that "External Iface" I might say "the output of `ghc --show-
iface` or something like that.
Documenting in the user manual is slightly odd; but only slightly. After
all, it's simply documenting what `ghc -ext-core` does; in particular,
defining the language it produces into the `.hcr` file. The
implementation diagram could form a useful part of the Commentary:
http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/wiki/Commentary.
Yes converting `core.tex` to `core.xml` would be a great start.
