That would be OK with me, although I still think it would be easier for
us to disentangle the library standardisation effort from the language
standardisation effort.
I'd suggest
Haskell.V2010.Data.List (just re-exports from V2011 where possible)
Haskell.V2010.Prelude (just re-exports from V2011 where possible)
Haskell.V2011.Data.List
Haskell.V2011.Prelude
with the implicit Prelude import being changed to
Haskell.V<version>.Prelude
where <version> is that latest the compiler supports, unless you say
e.g. -XHaskell2010.
Thanks
Ian
