 There is an oddity with `:browse!` that I didn't look into.  Load this
 module: [[http://darcs.haskell.org/testsuite/tests/ghc-
 regress/ghci/prog001/A.hs]], and try this:

 {{{
 *Main> :browse! C
 -- imported from B
 g :: (Num a) => a -> a
 h :: (Integral a) => a -> a
 f :: (Num a) => a -> a
 }}}

 but `g` and `h` are defined locally, and nothing is imported from `B`.
 This could be the result of the ordering changes I added to the `:browse!`
 patch, but I don't think so.
