Comment:

 `hsc2hs` has not been emitting `INCLUDE` pragmas since ghc 7.4.

     Remove the support for old GHC versions

     The conditional code was all for versions < 6.10, so old enough that
     they can't be used to compile the HEAD.

     Additionally, it didn't work properly. It relied on
 __GLASGOW_HASKELL__
     being defined when compiling the C, rather than having the C print the
     conditionals as part of the Haskell.
