[Yhc] pure-Haskell Integer implementation

[Isaac Dupree]

I was working on a re-implementation of the Integer type in pure Haskell 
earlier this summer, represented by [Int], thinking it might be useful 
as a less-broken alternative to GMP than using plain Int for Integer. 
The code turned out around 500-1000 lines.  It got pretty much working 
(in yhc, ghc, and hugs; according to QuickCheck comparing the results 
with native Integer anyway), though the code's still somewhat messy 
...and large Integer division seems to be sometimes slower than expected 
(maybe a strictness issue, haven't looked into it) ...although, all 
functions are fast for small values that fit in one Int.  Is anyone 
interested in more details or work on this?

(P.S. I wonder if I should ask any other mailing list than yhc's?)
