-------------------------+--------------------------------------------------
 Currently GHC.Prim is advertised to users, but it cannot be processed by
 haddock 2.0 so does not appear in the documentation in the HEAD. We should
 either fix this, or advertise a different module which re-exports all the
 stuff in GHC.Prim; we'd still need to magic up some actual documentation
 from somewhere.

 One thing which might make things (special cases in the build system and
 compiler) easier overall is to have a magic ghc-prim package containing
 GHC.Prim, rather than a magic GHC.Prim module in the base package. We're
 not yet sure whether it would actually make things easier, or just move
 the troubles to other places, though.
