[Haskell-beginners] haskell-src

[Brent Yorgey]

As I understand it, haskell-src-exts is to be preferred to haskell-src
since it is more actively maintained and parses more programs
(including some GHC extensions).  You may want to try switching to
haskel-src-exts and see if that solves your problem.
