Comment (by ekmett):

 My knee jerk _was_ to actually remove it, but then I looked with a quick
 google search and there is at least type-eq still using it, with a
 somewhat confused upgrade path, and explicit "future uncertain" comments
 in the code, which has dependencies upon it splintering out through
 haskell-names and fay, etc.
