Re: Gearing up (again) for the next release: 2014.2.0.0

Anders: What would you like to do about this situation? Is it possible 
to revert to the non monadcatchio interface with throwCGI and catchCGI? 
Or would you like to switch to the exceptions package which people are 
considering including in the platform?

Should we remove it from the platform?

I would like to see ghc shipping these libs registered.
