I think that we should try a different approach, forget about the importing mechanism, and make a single statement defining the intended semantics. Section 1.2 (The Haskell Kernel) is the place. I propose adding the following. The translations given, and the identities given for t

(I sent a similar message a few days ago which got lost somewhere) We have tried to express the semantics of some Haskell constructs by giving a translation into "Kernel" Haskell (Report section 1.2). This leads to difficulties because free variables in the translations can be captured by the

Some more questions concerning some constructs in Haskell: What if (the appropriate parts of) the standard prelude is explicitly *not* imported: import Prelude () or import Prelude hiding(map) (see section 5.4.3). Are then the hidden parts of the standard prelude still a
