| Subject: External Core front end is completely broken
| 
| Using the latest version of GHC downloaded from CVS, it's impossible
to use
| GHC to compile any .hcr files that it generates itself. The reason for
this
| is that, as per the CVS log for prelude/PrelNames.lhs, all "Main"
modules now
| contain a definition for $Main.main -- however, the External Core
lexer
| still requires module names to begin with an upper-case letter,
resulting in
| a parse error.
