You can move the few non-exported functions to a hidden module.

Re: [Haskell-cafe] List of exports of a module - are there alternatives?
I would like to see this too. Maybe just a private keyword that would make everything after it invisible to the outside (or until a public keyword appeared)?

I think that it's not nice to export 200 declarations from a single module.
